Default RE: Looking for a " Beater"

ORIGINAL: Rcpilet

4*40 or 4*60 ARF

Not exactly fast--but tons of fun.

If ya want fast--then get a pattern type airplane or maybe an old style pylon.

GP Little Toni or GP Minnow.

Or maybe try one of these:

I already have a few speed planes but speed is good! I've looked into the old style pattern planes, but they are a bit pricey for beater use. The GP racers were also considered, but I doubt I could make myself build one without throwing a Jett in it. The Speed Air you posted a link to looks interesting.

The World Models planes have a great reputation. Will look into those. Didn't realize I had as many options for a cheapie.

Thanks everyone !
