I agree Henke.
I have been flying turbines for 20 plus years and have flown many, many different jets as well as test flying for others.
Your comments are absolutely true and newbies should take his advice.
While I still have and will fly my big toys ( Carf Tutor, Skygate/Carf Hawk ) I find the simplicity, size and value of smaller
" nanoturbine " models so much more relaxing and enjoyable. So what if I dent a bit of foam or bend a strut on landing, geeez
I could buy a complete airframe for the cost of just my landing gear on my Hawk!

How about this...I can fully outfit 7 Avios Mig 17s complete with X45 turbines for the price of my single ready to fly big Hawk.
