Default RE: next plane

Sailplanes are exactly what I started with, lengthy flight times.

Still yet my favored is the Flyzone Corvalis, as low wing touch of speed but generous wing span makes for an incredible solid flyer, option of using scale like flaps, nearly an overkill as so easy to land either way.

Yet to find a model close to this majestic handler, an easy lander.

Not overly large wheels best to land on pavement, just have room for the extended glide, deadsticks beautifully.

Bonus has lights if you dare to enter night flying, dusk flying a breeze.

Older clip of a typical soft touch landing, usually the norm with this puppie, as I'm far from gifted here, it's a piece of cake

Nose gear is beefed up, far from indistructible but another well thought out design .
