Default RE: challenger vs extreme

ya ill have to tell my brother about what you guys are saying. watching him lean how to fly makes me laugh. and if i could laugh and make it cheaper for him to learn, that would make him feel a little bit better. he got the extreme to be one up on me. plus i'd get to rag on him more for having a taped up plane! (at least it'll fly)i see it now...him taping his plane up and me telling him !QUOT!man, you mise well glue some sticks and plastic bags together and it would look better than that!QUOT! we like talking trash to each other. a little brotherly love. as far as the damages. the prop problem took out a piece as round as a coke can and how would you brace the v tail from creasing all the time? as far as this post goes tho i just put it up to show that if your beginning IMO go with the challenger. its just that more is going wrong with his then i ever had to deal with. its just funny that where we fly is a huge park and the only cement is a 4 foot wide track that outlines the park and every time my brother loses control he always finds that cement to land on!
would the same be true for my folded wing too? can you fix that in the same manner?
wind does throw his around alot more than my AB but on calm days his way out performs mine such as in turns and things. me being comfortable with the AB the speed of the extreme wasn't really to much more to handle than the AB.
