I've had both versions in the past Alan, the Pro version does fly better for aerobatics but does need good lift conditions. The semi symetrical sport version will stay up better in light lift and still flies very well.

The current plan is: in light winds fly power at Cashmoor then when the wind picks up head for the slopes. With that in mind the pro version would probably be ok. The truth is I'm torn between a Phase 6, building a Phase 5 or going for a 60"" Wildthing.

The three options are not mutually exclusive, Alan!

Another Wildthing is just that. Gliding is something else, more graceful style of flying. You seemed to settle in nicely with Dave's Phase. after watching for some time that's why I fancied another slope only glider and not to big to lug around either.

This is true Mike, I should look at it as a To-Do list, although I will need to find some additional storage in order to clear my building board

More graceful than a Wildthing - not possible surely. :silly:
