I have been reading the posts, & doing my share of 'homework' & I think I have it narrowed down, but I need a little help. I have flown (& crashed) before, years back so I'm no stranger to planes. I have been running boats for about 15 years but got the itch to get back into the air. I'm looking for something to do on a lazy afternoon - you know, something relaxing. Something I don't have to build up & can just play & enjoy.

I have it narrowed down to the Hobbico Avistar RTF or the Hangar 9 Arrow since I would like more than a flat-bottomed wing. I have heard a little bit about both the LA series engines & the hangar 9 'engine system' with 3-blade prop. I would like to stay with the stock engine for a bit but will probably swap out at a later time. Please, let me have some input on this if you have a minute.

Thanks
