I have been out of r/c flying for about 4 years now. I had about 6 years of active flying (weekends and after work when i could). Got into the low wing sport models but more into the scale side - not the high aerobatic models. I enjoyed the slow to mid speed and really started getting into scratch building towards my exiting the hobby. I had about 3 scratch builds under my belt.

I am looking at coming back into the hobby as now money is abit better and want to get into the giant scale.

Question is two fold.

First what would you suggest to hone my skills back up to handle a 1/5 to 1/4 scale

would any of the Tow planes based on the crop dusters used for r/c glider towing be good for a intermediate pilot after honing the skills back up?

The large dusters and large scale old timers and WWII's are the types i enjoy, however can not seem to find plans for any of them. There was one from Poland (crop duster type) - can not remember the name of the plane but can not find it over a 60" span.


Anyways any suggestions?


Thanks

David
