Default RE: Whats a good Beginer Bipe?

You don't say if you are a "beginner" flyer, or just a "beginner" builder. Bipes are quite a bit more complex to build. However the Balsa USA Phaeton II is almost as easy to fly as a trainer. Anyone who can fly a trainer well would have no trouble flying it as a second plane. Building is another story though. If you have some experienced help to build it, it would make a great second model. While easy enough for an experienced builder, you need to have built several kits and have the skill to solder well (to make the cabane assembly) before attempting to build one.
