Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum here and thought start by asking whether or not I'm making a mistake

I started out on sailplanes as advised by the person who got me into the hobby, and made my way to a PT 20 shortly thereafter as it was at the time (10 years ago) one of the better full power trainers that I had seen in action. (See my post under http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.a...805&tostyle=tm for details on the fate of the PT) My concern is that as I have been trolling the boards for some time now I see very little mention of them at all as the trainer to go for. I have for the most part salvaged the fuse of the PT and what wasnt salvaged I am rebuilding from stock bought down at the local hobby shop. I would like to get this bird flying again and could do so at little cost, but I am worried that I'm wasting my time if there are far better trainers out there now. I would almost rather drop the dime on something that will be a better first plane as I havent flown at all in 10 years. I would like to be sure I will be able to comfortably handle any plane I take up as it will be most likely Solo unless I work up the gumption to go ask for help from the local Club. Anyways, I ramble on .. 6 AM here and havent slept yet. Any opinions on the situation would be much appreciated.

Also, as my Radios were made in 1991?, I think... Is there any way to ensure they are Narrowband? or do I need to ship them off to the manufacturer? They are Airtronics Vanguard.

Thanks again for any help!
