Default RE: SECOND plane

How well can you fly your trainer? Can you fly your trainer inverted and do low passes or do nice looking cuban eights, hammerheads, wingovers etc? A trainer doesn't have to be boring. It is more of a challenge to fly well.

That said, a stick is a stick. I have a 1.20 size Ultra Stick. I find it very boring. The crow and flap thing gets old after a few flights and you really need a good computer radio (8103) to set it up properly.

If you really want fun get a Funtana 40 with a Saito .82 or Funtana 90 with a Saito 1.00 or YS 1.10 and fly it with reduced rates. You can use the radio you have now but get better servos for either plane. I am confident you will enjoy the Funtana as a second plane and you will not get bored before you total it.

After you fly the plane for a while then get yourself a nice radio with dual rates and expo.
