My Friend had a GP Easy Sport for a second plane, and loved it. It was easy to take off. land, and fly, yet could be quite maneuverable. His next plane after the Easy Sport was a Kyosho Spitfire, and the transition was painless. This Spitfire was outstanding in that it was a very light plane, thus avoiding many of the problems of some of the war birds. Good luck on your progress. As other have mentioned, don't get too anxious. Lots to be learned with each plane.
