okay thanks. im not really going to be looking at nitro powered planes since in planes i want only electric. would you say a parkflyer would be better for flying around a school field?

sorry i meant im not really looking for a glow powered plane. in cars we call it nitro

In which case you're on the wrong forum, and can probably get better advice from the the specialist electric fliers. This forum (1/8A-1/2A) deals largely with internal combustion powered models using 0.010-0.05 cu ins engines, though sometimes larger engine sizes are discussed.

I know loads of plane guys that call it nitro i call them glow because they got glow plugs. a parklyer would be probably the best suited to fly around a school sports field and you probably know this already but you should be able to fly most high winged pretty easily so if you go with a small high winged model you probably cant go wrong, i think cubs are great to learn with you can usually pick them up pretty cheap any more questions just post here or PM me.

okay sorry. i knew it was in the wrong section. k im going to go post in the electric forum.
