i have been flying an aerobird and i am ready for and aileron plane. I have been looking at the gws p51. I am wondering if this is a good second plane or any other recomendations would be appreciated. I am going to have to start from scratch with plane radio ect.
thanks in advance

A Crazy Max makes a much better first aileron as it is easy to fly and when you make a mistake it's easy to fix. You might find one of the GWS "warbirds" (P51, Zero) a bit of a handful if just starting into aileron flight - perhaps best to make that the 3rd plane?

Having said that I just flew my GWS Zero for the first time a couple of days ago and think it's great but I've had more than 500 flights on a Switchback before that and think the Zero (and probably P51 as it's similar) behviour in slow speed flight probably don't make it a good idea for someone starting out with ailerons (you could easily stall on landing approach which would not be good!)
