RE: Good Second Plane
If you like the park flyers, the Mini Ultra Stick from e-flite is a great performer. The aerodynamics are very forgiving of pilot error (no tip stalls) but it is much more maneuverable than the plane you are used to. I'd at least suggest getting a more experienced pilot to do the maiden for you and set up the throws to be docile. You'll find with it though that general flying and especially landing is much easier with it than on your trainer.
