Status: offline 		Opinions on which one I should buy? I want to be able to fly high, but mainly which plane would be better for upgrades in the future? I have experience flying the Champ, UM T-28 Trojan, and Firebird STratos.

It's powerful enough stock and the only upgrades you might want to make  are adding functional flaps, and ...maybe .... ugh.......retracts     This too is a good next step up from the Stratos BUT it's a bit more expensive and you would have to buy a good DSM2 radio like a DX6 or 7 so you can add more planes down the road.

I own the I'm Champ t28 and cub. If you are into more stunts go for the T-28. More for lakes soaring go for the cub

I think no matter what you be happy.

I enjoy flying the SC she soars like a dream at high altitude. And is a larger champ. I do not do stunts

Status: offline 		If you have mastered the Champ and UM Trojan, then by all means, get the T-28. Be warned though, the larger Trojan doesn't fly at all like the micors. Make sure you use dual rates and that the CG is spot on with the full size T-28 Trojan. Mine flies straight and level hands off at 50% power and is a dream to fly. I have the dual rates set at 60% aileron and 75% elevator. She is very tame with this setup. BTW - I also have the HZ Super Cub and fly her everytime I go out, she is the first plane up in the air and the last. She warms me up first and then relaxes me from the rigors of flying my warbirds.
