RE: Good First Planes
I don't know if it is mentioned, but my first electric trainer was a Soarstar. It looks kind of like the Wingo, from Hobby Lobby. If you look at my Member Profile, then there will be some more details on it. This plane is fun no matter what skill you are. Use the motor to go as high as you can see, then, kill it and let the breeze float you around. I can get about 30 min. of flying on just one battery! It also rolls and loops. It takes off and lands superbly! All you need are servos and a reciever. You don't even have to buy a battery! This plane is a lot of fun! I recommend it to any beginner or expert pilot that wants to learn, or to just unwind with a gentle flight. This is an excellent plane.
