RE: Best Trainer a SPAD or ARF or RTF
The SPAD you still have to build. so, with little to no time to build, it's kinda out of teh running.
there are some good 'combo' kits, such as teh Alpha trainer, and this new Nexstar. Nice thing about these, is that they require little work. the nextsar does have teh bonus of a simulator bundled with the kit, along with the radio and engine.
trouble is, what to do first: build and charge teh batteries, or play with the flight sim!!!!
Except for a few hours building time, a few hours to charge the battery, and some basic feild equipment, both the Nexstar and the Alpha Trainer are probably your better choices.
then any ARF / RTR trainer out there, such as the LT-40... (but you need to buy the radio and engine, and install them....)
Show up at the local feild, and get an instructor!
It's easier to learn the proper habits, than to break the bad ones....
