I am new at the hobby too. I am learning with an Avistar
But I already have 2 second planes: the Big Stick and an Escapade. I have not flown them yet.
Do you have a sim?
I think it is the best way to try planes. They may not fly exactly the same, but you have an idea.
You will know how fast they roll, how responsive, how slow they land etc...
After so much time on the sim, now I know the Big Stick will be my second. I will wait for the Escapade.
Your choice will be easier like this.
