I have three "trainers" in the fleet. One is a H9 Easy 2 that I picked up used after not flying for a couple years - now it's set up for trainer racing. Second is a Balsa USA Stik40+, with dual aileron servos and a Saito 56 - a ball to fly, and the aileron servos are on top so it has a ton of throw! Third is a stock NexStar, TT 46Pro and recommended throws, with all the training aids - grandson trainer.

I keep a trainer for training others, flight demos at less than perfect locations, and as backups for fun-flys. I've also tossed one in the pickup and shown up at fields where they don't know me, just to see how I was received. You can tell a lot about a club by how they treat such folk....and as many as I've helped over the years, I know how to act like a newbie!
