RE: u can do 3d
This may go against the grain.... But if your proficient with your trainer
and have tried a tail dragger and can land good...
I would say on low rates and a forward CG the UCD 46 can be a Great
second plane... It flies super easy, No bad habits, lands really easy,
more so with the forward CG.. It's a floater and cheaper to buy....
It does not like hard landings, will rip the gear out if you do not reinforce.
And being a 3d plane it is built light, So landing other than on it's wheels :-)
will break it..... There are better steps to take first... But I would do it
if I had to do it over... My UCD 46/YS63 is the easiest plane I have flown..
But that's just my opinion
