I'll second the idea of the Mini Ultra stick, I don't have one myself but I will eventually build or buy one. I see plenty of people out there with them and they fly great. that GIANT chord helps for stable slower flight. For a balsa plane they are easy to repair as well. <div>

I do not recommend the Corsair, it's a beautiful plane but requires a little experience as it can get you into trouble and isn't the fastest at recovering, eg: tip stalling on landing.  Depending on what you want I would recommend a foam plane as they repair easy and replacement parts are cheap depending on the brand. The Parkzone T-28 is a good second plane, it looks good and flys well, but is also forgiving.</div><div>
