Transition to warbirds
I currently fly a Tiger 60. It is my second plane. My goal is to fly warbirds, so I'm wondering what would make a good plane to build and fly next. Should I just move to a warbird, like the Top Flite P47? I've heard that this is an easy flying warbird but requires landing with power rather than floating in like the Tiger. I'm wondering if there's a plane that is somewhere between the Tiger 60 and the P47 in flying characteristics that I should try first.
I'm looking for a kit rather than an ARF, since I also want to get more building experience.
Thanks for any suggestions and opinions.
