RE: question
Lots of choices anarchy101. Two strong contenders would have to be hobbyzone supercub, and multiplex easystar. I learnt on a different plane again - the Electrafun XP - not sure whether it is available in the states or not. Pod and Boom flyer. All of these are 3 channel only.
Good luck with it.

Me and my bro both got Super Cubs as our first planes. Very easy to learn on, won't be disappointed... And durable, bro flew his into trees and no damage.

Don't know if you read the review on the hobby lobby site, but at the bottom the reviewer makes this comment:

Is This For a Beginner?
I would say that the Pitts Bipe is NOT for the beginner as it does not posses the self-leveling qualities that most trainers have. It would make a great second or third airplane and a very nice first aerobatic biplane.

RE: question
i can second oz's statement about the electrafun xp, i started on it to and now can fly it quite comfortabley. i think you cant get this one in U.S but i think there is another version called the t-hawk. it is very good when it comes to slow flight i love flying around at 3 clicks above no throttle and also wit the rate as high as possible it can become quite aerobatic.

dave
