I re-started with a PT-40 last Jan. It is a good flying plane the LA .46 will be a plus. If you build a PT-40 build it with a sport wing. I suggest an 11x4 prop to start, it will help slow the plane down on final approach. The Avistar ARF with the LA .46 is also an excellent plane(my son is flying one) it is gentle enough for a trainer but more capable of more advanced flying. It would be my first choice. Just my opinion!!
