Made a plane. This time I really really liked it.

It has:
30" span, 6" chord wing (semi-symmetrical) with full span ailerons
22" length
D2826/6 motor, 30a ESC, and 6x3 prop
1300mah 3s battery
4x 9g servos
Turnigy 9x radio
[AUW around 9-10oz (haven't weighed it yet)]
EDIT: AUW is 15oz, finally weighed it ;)

It's so absurdly good I can't believe it (maybe I have low standards). It's not extremely fast but certainly quick and climbs vertically, while the wing is big enough to maneuver properly (with great stall control too btw- its VERY fun to go straight up and cut into a tumbling stall only to catch control again) and land easily. Drag is fairly low, with a better glideslope than I expected.

Best of all for me, it only needs a large-ish park to fly in!

It's an extremely pleasant aerobatic plane that can fly out of a soccer field no problem. In lieu of field size you can just go straight up and down ;)
