I usually suggest the super cub, it has a great track record for newbies and works for most. With easy throttle near 15 minute flight times are near the norm. I do suggest you find a seasoned pilot, will help in saving your ship on the learning curve. Last year a newbie started with our group using the Super Cup. WE did do take off and landings till he had some feel for flight. Is quite the accomplished flyer now even has a bipe.

You picked the top two in my books as also flew the Radian, as mentioned its a glider, you float with this one and perhaps chase thermals for extended flight times, terffic fun as well. Either is great, decide which or even both as I eventually did, fantastic.

Keep us posted
