Our flying field has lots of semi-beginners and they sure like the Hanger 9 Twist.($99).
some have os46 and some saito 72 to 100. plane is great flyer, lands slow..and does outstanding 3d.
I personally have not flown..(but I did have a u-can-do 46, which kept stripping wing servos)..and I would
buy the twist over the u-can-do.
just my 3cents worth.
