Default RE: Some Second Plane Advice Needed

Darn,

I started on the same plane then moved to a SIG LT-40 Kadet then a SIG 4 * 40 ARF (Lands better than the Kadet and Xtra Easy 2) and also bought a Twist

World Models makes a good low wing and high wing plane for around 70 bucks that all your equipement will work well with

The high wing is a semi symetrical airfoil and is a trainer. The long wing is a fully symetical and can do nice aerobatics

They are the Sky Raider I (High Wing) and the Sky Raider II (Low Wing)

The Hangar 9 Ultra Stik is also a good choice but you will need to by at least one more server and if you want the flaps optin the you will need a total of 3 more servos (JR 537 servos are fairly cheap

If you can afford it I would suggest that you keep the trainer handy and intack and purchase a new engine from evo, the NT46 is around 80 bucks and a JR Airpack with the correct channel for the receiver crystal, usually 5 bucks for the crystal and 125 for the receiver and 4 servos

this one will work well with the radio you already have

The four star and world model planes use 4 servos and the utlra stick can use 5 to 7 servos depending on your desired setup but will only need 5 channels
