I'm with you....I'd beat up on the cheap ARF trainer....and then maybe think
about a kit....
Dave.
Or even a "nicer" ARF.
Dave,
I have more sense than money (at times
), and can not see the other's reasoning. Hey, if you want to buy the very best ARF trainer, with the very best motor, and the top o' the line radio for your very first plane...go for it. I would prefer to spend less on the "destined for the Hefty" first one, and put the "extra" money in the kitty for the 2nd plane that's going to be the one you're more attached to. Plus, it's going to last ya a little longer....hopefully!
Ok, I'm done with with this. Good luck, with whatever you choose. Have fun, as that's what this hobby is all about.
