Default Wondering about a trainer

I hadn't flow for 2 years, then only flew 1 season and it was 3-4 years prior to that that I really flew. The First plane I flew in 2 years was a Sig Cap231.
I picked up a Hobico Avistar the other day, so I can teach some people. I flew it this weekend for the first time. It was a fun little plane. inverted flight needed a little down, rolls were fairly quick, Pretty sloppy spins and snaps. Not sre if I would even call them snaps. But Cuban 8s, even knife edge with a lot of ail. to hold it. This thing will roll real easy on just rudder. Almost got a few tailslides with the help of the wind. The little OS 40LA pulled it quite nicely. A 46fx and this could be a real fun plane.
