I know there is a general thread for the dlc, but I want to take a moment and focus on one certain plane out of the bunch. The new stunt plane, the Alpha Z1.
What do you guys think of it?
Youtubes loves to hype this up as some amazing machine. But you ask me, this plane is absolutely horrible, just god awful. It's fast sure, but it has so much god damn oversteer. You touch the control stick the slightest bit and this plane is all over the place. Stunt planes are meant for precision flying, how the hell can anybody possibly be precise with this thing? Trying to knife edge though buildings or fly under bridges is a chore with the insane oversteer this plane has. My opinion, the classic Mallard or any of the fighter jets are by far better then the Alpha Z1.
And it's not just me, my friend agrees that this thing oversteers way to damn much.
Thank god I was able to test drive this thing during the smuggling missions, now I know not to buy it. Not even to think about buying it.
What do you guys think of the Alpha Z1 stunt plane?

Dunno about its handling, but watching someone out do an 811 in a drag race in this thing. On the ground. Backwards. That was clasic.
Yes thats right, you can get from one end of a runway to another driving the Alpha z1 backwards than you can in an 811.

Wait is that true? Is it just the raw stats on the thing or is it some kind of bug like the one with the Hydra?

I've only used the stock one in missions and it seems well slow? Is it really fast once tuned then?

TBF i love it as a 80% non violent gta online player i love the Alpha as its fast can climb like hell, turns fast and has counter smoke, it pretty much my perfect plane.
As for handling it way to oversteery i agree but doesn't take to long to adjust to and with practice is a lot of fun!
and landing is annoying at first but if you just cut out the engine is much better to land, the plane as a hole is hard at first but with experience is much better
i would pick this plane 80% of the time with the other 20% being for when im pissing about with some mates in a hydra

It'd be great if it stopped rolling when you ask it to. If the Mammoth can handle a change in roll direction instantly a racing plane can.
