What is your Go To FT plane?

[jack10525]

For me my Go To FT plane is the simple stick. I've had a few store bought sticks and are usually easy to fly with great capabilities...but they do break when they crash. FT created their own version and I have built at least 20. 2-3 from speed build kits and the rest scratch build. Such a simple plane that is easy to build and fly and also more durable than foam. Now I am trying to find a replacement for it. I just want something a little bigger with a different flight feel. I've already built a larger 150% and 200% sticks. Still flies pretty much the same. Which FT had a scratch build of a bush plane with a 50-60" wing span. Any suggestions?

You might take look at the Bushwhacker.

I have 3 planes that are my goto's, the Versa, the FT3D & a Cub that I designed. I finally have the Cub to a point where I need to publish the plans.

I truly believe in variety, Presently liking the simple stick myself , several of the “bloody” series are fast builds and fly well. Try a wing or two. The explorer in all its variations is always fun.

FT Spitfire for me

it has been the tiny trainer, but after 10+ years of crashes, over g, cartwheeling, etc... , it has been retired.... It was just too bendy..... everywhere. Last flown at FF'25

Also the Sponz - Foam Wonder (Specifically the Noob type) all of them. The are easy to trasport, fun to fly and it is durable.

I like the FT Goblin, but I don’t seem to build much FT stuff lately…. (Just finished another goblin though)

I have quite the unusual choice, I love my Boomin Flerken!

OOH, that's a cool one, I've also got some Retro Rocket Kits I need to build, and an XL Scout...

Hmmm.... I have a trio of original GWS very slow sticks, but for extreme fun and durability, I do a KFM3 flying wing gotten from plans here then supersized. Fyi: cows do not chase well.
The OV10 kinda spontaneously disassembled itself, I learned very low inverted don't work on T tail flitetest wings.... should finish the bloody wonder radio install........
Combat zagi is fun, but nobody here to combat with
