I'm flying a Sig LT- 40 trainer which is a high wing trainer and alot eaiser to fly than the Midstar as it's a low wing plane.
Funny 4 years ago I learned on a LT-40 then I went to a Four Star 60 low wing tail dragger. Guess what I thought? How much easier it was to fly the Four Star cause it went where I pointed it, when I wanted it. By the way a MidStar is a quasi mid wing airplane hence it's name. Just my 2 cents.

Do do as everyone has suggested and find an instructor. Keep the throws gentle and you'll do fine with the MidStar. The friendships I've made at my field have enriched this hobby tremendously, join a club.
