but don't think your TOYS are any better just cause they cost more.
AJEAR,
You might want to look into having that chip on your shoulder removed.
BTW I'm happy you enjoy your areobird. Judging from how many times you've posted that review here on RCU you must enjoy it alot.
If you took the time to read rjeffers posts you would notice that he is NOT a beginner and has experience with glow powered planes. The electric is for his son. My comments about staying away from the junky "toy" store type planes were based on the fact that I have tried both types (have you?) and the planes I recommended would make teaching his son easier IMHO since they would exhibit similar flying characterics to glow planes. Also Since he is already in the hobby it might be possible to use existing equipment rather then getting a RTF with a junky 27Mhz radio.
