Default RE: Bi planes

I was looking at park flyers, as a cheap way of geting my nerve back after having a crash with my heli.
Got fed up driving to the club after the crash, finding it was too windy to practice hovering and seeing the plank boys having fun.
So I got a trainer. Ready 2 with an irvine 53 straped to the front. Its been test flown by all the instructors down the club, they have had the thing doing loops to show how stable it is.
But after the crash all I see is £ or $ signs in the air waiting to go the same way as my heli. Even though I know that you have more chance of recovering a plank on an engine stall, servo failiure etc
Thats why I was looking at the lecy planes, something slower, less altitude to get used to the sticks and help stop the panic.

to make it worse, I love my modeling. projects waiting to be built over the winter period
Flair mustang 50 size
Flair zero fighter 50 size
Flair Focker Wulf 120 size
Ultimate 40
A 26 invader

At the moment Im like a little kid who has fallen off a bike and hasnt got the balls to brush myself off and get back on and ride again.
And Im looking at every way of geting back on that bike
