Hi Expo,i couldn't agree more with there decision the ugly stick is perfect for a second plane i own one now as well.and i don't regret it at all its taught me allot,as far as the ucando its a floater and yes you may not have any trouble flying it at all. But it really has a soft landing gear set up the wood it soft guaranteed to rip out on a hard landing.and as for the funtana think before you buy its a hand full........... But had i seen this plane.... before the stick it would have been a no brainer,hands down. me and a Friend of mine went flying with a group of his Friend's and one of them had this plane it was sweet. it was love at first flight check it out.heres the review [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/article_display.cfm?article_id=164]MIDWEST AEROBAT[/link]
