Hi,
I have been interested in r/c gliders/sailplanes for years but could not get myself to buy a plane for fear of crashing, thus wasting my money. Even after all of these years I still have the desire to fly. I take it its best not get one with ailerons first a first time fly???

I have spent many hours researching RTF gliders and I wrote down 3 that interested me but I have questions about each one.

Radian Electric Sailplane RTF which was suggested. I am wondering if there is really an issue with the motor or battery overheating from a lot of use??? Someone had brought this up on one of the forums and I am searching for the truth on this matter.

"Easy Fly RTF EPP sailplane." Its a white foam build. I have no idea who makes this sailplane??? Does anyone know of this particular glider??? The design seems similiar to the Radian but the RTF package is different such as the electronics and transmitter. I am wondering which is better as far as quality and better buy between the Raidian RTF and the "Easy Fly RTF EPP comparing both planes and electronics-servos & transmitter???

Spectra Electric Sailplane RTF compared to Radian and Easy Fly RTF package???


Your final thoughts regarding the entire RTF package including the better electronics(servos, transmitter) as well as the better plane???

Thanks in advance for your expertise

Thanks for the info OzMo. I am crossing the "Easy Fly RTF" off the list because its hard to get and I bet parts are as well. I also decided to cross off the Spectra RTF due after reading about weak electronics. I hear the Radian as a weak tail which is prone to breakage? Not many entry level planes left? I guess its either the Radian or the Multiplex Easy Star??? Which is the better package???
