Welcome aboard! CL is a great deal of fun and very different from RC because you are physically connected to your plane.

The built up wing plane will generally fly better, so if you want to go that way, terrific. (I had not seen the Zinger before. It looks good.) If not, the Platter, also featured on the aeromaniacs site, is excelent. And an even quicker build.

Brodak <www.brodak.com> also has a nice line of small CL kits. If you want to go with a little larger .15 size model, the Flite Streak Trainer is great.

In the small models, the Cox engines have been the favorite for many years, but now have been supplanted by NorVels (handled by Sig Mfg.) and the Brodak 049.

Let us know what else we can help with.
