Thanks for all your help with regards to my question the Cof G especially and elevator throw, Also thanks for advice on a more appropriate size Prop for the Machine. However I did not ask for advice on whether the plane was any good for a novice etc etc. As I already knew those answers. I would appreciate it if anyone wanting to help would please advise on what equipment they reccommend to be used for the application as originally asked.

And just to try and sort through this Trainer debarcle.

1. I am a fully qualified Aircraft Engineer.
2. I have studied aircraft design including aerodynamics,propulsion,system design etc
3. I have been around aeroplanes for 20yrs or more
4. The above is why I am interested in RCheli as it was all new and the physics /setup are different (for me planes are well a bit plane due to my background)
5. Mitigating factors to consider, I fly on Reflex XTR daily both planes and helis (up to Knife edge circuits etc with planes on the sim)
6. I have flown an 80' edge 540 at the club on buddy including inverted passes (at height)
7. The model will be on buddy until i am ready (due to the investment)
8. My peers feel that even though I have never owned a plane I would outgrow a trainer very quickly due to my level of experience thus far. (plane Peers that is)
9. I do not want to waste money on a trainer that i may outgrow within a matter of weeks.

Note. I have also done knife edge passes with a friends pc9 46 size machine SOLO.

So again if you could please just assist me in selecting the right equipment for the Aircraft i would be grateful instead of just saying i look like a beginner by the equipment i have chosen.

Regards
Jody
