Yeah, i dont feel the Nexstar is worth the 400 bucks..... if everyone ends up taking off the AVS or whatever the hell is it, and the speed brakes, and the Wing Extensions, thats alot of stuff you're not using yet you paid for. Look into aircraft make by Hangar 9, Great Planes, Sig, or other Hobbico planes. They all have much better trainers than the Nexstar and will be worth it in the long run when you realize how much money you just spent on something you won't even use. Just research, theres plenty of information on this site to help you. happy hunting!
