Default RE: which plane to use for instructing

I think the T-28 is a great trainer and great airplane, I would like to vote for a Hobbico/Flyzone Cessna 350 Corvalis Very docile and has good power. Easy to build can be flowen with or without the flaps (without until you can some experience with it). After you gain some experience setup the flaps for t/o and landings. I always fly my corvalis before i fly anything else. I use it as my warmup plane. High winds don't matter either, the more wind the better, with the long wingspan ill climb out and kill the throttle and glide around with it. When the wind is right you can fly it like a powered glider lol, pushing 10m flytime on a 3s 2200mah. I plan on flying mine until the wings fall off then buy another one lol.<div></div><div>http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...XADFW&amp;P=ML</div><div></div><div>Here's mine:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRjENjJ116Y</div>
