Very OLD Nitro Trainer Versus New Electric Trainer?
I have been buddy box training with a very old RCMtype 60" highwing Nitro trainer that was given to me free by a club member. All I had to do was add servos and a receiver/transmitter(I'm using a Spectrum DX6i). I am very grateful for this. The plane is very old and heavy from lots of repairs over the years and it seems to have to fly too fast for me to be stable in the air. Landings are giving me fits because it always needs what I think is too much airspeed to keep from stalling and my instructor likes to fly fast all the time anyway. I would like a trainer that will landat slower speeds than what I have.
I thinkthat I will go to electrics only after I solo.
I would like to get a nice electric high wing trainer and I'm thinking a RTF or ARF (with little need for assembly as I don't have the skills yet) 60" wingspan or something close. Can anyone here comment on what my options are here for a good larger electric trainer?
Thank you.
