Speed, speed, and more speed. Low wing planes tend to be go faster than trainers. Also they are usually more maneuverable. Low wing "trainers" such as the Tiger 2, Tiger 60, or Fourstar series, offer low landing speed much like your trainer. If your greasing 'em in with your trainer, then the transition will probably be an easy one to a low wing trainer like the ones I just mentioned. Low wing trainers don't float quite as well as a trainer does, but the ones mentioned here offer airfoils designed to add lift at low speeds. Thier stall characteristics are usually gentle and predictable. I am sure others will chime in on this one...good info for beginners to know.
