You CAN do all the aerobatics with a trainer. Its the best plane to learn on.
Go try it sometime. Crank up the throws and go for it.
Your response that its "rediculous" just goes to show that you've never tried it. If you had--you'd know that any trainer can do all the aerobatics.
Reread my response, it had nothing to do with the plane, it was about the pilots. Some of the manuevers that you suggested that a person do before moving from their trainer are things that many (most) pilots will never do with a trainer, or any other plane. If someone wants a P-51 and the new P-51 PTS meets that desire, I say go for it. Not all people who fly R/C aspire to doing rolling circles, for many (most) it's just about flying a plane that meets their idea of cool.
