| The VoyagerE is limited to mild aerobatics -even with upgrades- due to it's small main rotor disk, weight (heavy and battery placement is too far away from disk), and power. I'd assume that with stock blades, you get more lift in the positive pitch range, but less negative pitch performance, meaning, you'll probably be able to do some mild aerobaticks, but not cut grass while hovering inverted.
Lucky for me, I'm still learning- I can't even do nose in yet- so the Voyager will do fine for me due to its stabilitiy and crash worthyness. It's quite tough and cheap to fix, but as they say, it's no Logo.
