RE: Which RTF Trainer?
I found my trainer from an experenced member at our club..I bought it, Sig Lt40, no engine or servos for 70$, bought a 6As pack, and an os46fx...learned to fly, sold the trainer at the LHS for 70$, still use the radio and servos and have had the engine in 2 other sport planes...fell in love with 4 strokes now..but still have engine..
Only problem I see with the RTF..is that the radio, the engine and maybe even the servos...will serve you little service after you learn and want to move into other planes..
a 46fx will fly a trainer very nice...but will also rip up the sky in a 40 size Extra 300S when you are ready..and a 4 channel radio will do you little good in the long run.
Look at the long term use of your investment..
OH, and have fun !
