Thank you everyone for the advice so far!<div>
</div><div><div>Of all the models suggested, I think the Apprentice or the Sensei would be the closest to what I am looking for. Both models seem to be what I am looking for in regards to size and proportion. I fly at a local club with a grass strip, so that would be where his model will be flown as well. I assume both models would have no difficulty with short to medium length grass? </div><div>
</div><div>In the meantime, although this model is as of yet unknown to him, I've had my brother on the simulator (Realflight G4.5) and he's quite good.  I'm also going to pick up a buddy cable because I wan't the model to last more than 12 seconds. </div></div><div>
</div><div>I'm still very much open to suggestions for other models or ideas. </div><div>
</div><div>Thanks again,</div><div>
