The Easy Star is a replacement for the Teddy. I've taught several people to fly with the Teddy (including my niece, she's looping the wings off and doing stall turns and tail slides) and IMHO its the best electric trainer out there and it's not afraid of the wind. The Easy Star is a little swoopier, has a better wing that's two piece and the fuse has been tweaked to eliminate the balncing problems associated with the Teddy (most came out tail heavy, not enough nose to get everything forward. For $188 RTF you can't go wrong. I just talked my local club into buying one for a club trainer that can be left in our field lock box (got a guy and his son that have been flogging the Firebrd/Aerobird to death with no success, figured if we get the Easy Star, next time they show up they'll be able to fly something that actually can.).
