Default RE: Which RTF Trainer?
After reading some of the suggestions here (and MANY of the previous posts) I have narrowed my choices down:

Tower Trainer (w/ OS .46FX)
Alpha (w/ the Evolution .45 if possible)
Avistar


Do all of these trainers have ailerons? Also, what kinds of radios come with these kits? I'd like to have a 4 channel so I can do a transplant when I'm ready to move up. I don't mind having an ARF as I like putting things together, however I don't have the space right now to be gluing balsa together.

What kind of fuel works with these engines? On my friend's Eagle II we ran some pink fuel (15% nitro I think) in an old OS 46SF. What effect does each different % of nitromethane have on the engine?

One more thing about the different trainers mentioned above. Someone said that there's FMS simulator SW that's cheap or free and requires a connector cord to connect your controller to your PC. What radios have this capability?
