This plane is a great value for aerobatics. I used the G15 920kv, 40a esc,13x6.5, 2200 3s 30c elite, it has unlimited vertical. Put the first 3 flights on it, it is far from set up yet, but it will knife edge low and slow all the down the field, was too nose heavy to start to spin well but will move the battery back once its trimmed in. There is no instructions, but Skywing is a popular manufacturer and you can google the manual. This is the perfect plane to try all the 3d stuff without spending a ton of dough.
