RE: First Warbird what should it be?
If I may, here are my suggestions from my experience.
I'd say Kyosho Mustang is a good first.
Any mustang is a good first exept World Models. They seem to be a bit heavy but if youre experienced then thats no problem.
Hangar 9 is great but the retracts.
I started with a pt-19 and that was my 2nd plane and I wished I'd started off with the Kyosho Mustang.
