Default RE: New to gliders (....help?)

If slope is your desire and you've got enough time under your belt to fly the trainer on your own then one of the EPS slopers would probably be a nice start to all this. I can't suggest anything specific but I can confirm that you're on the right track. A Zagi with the controls set to be less sensitive for the first while would be a fine option. Just be sure to get some suggestions on a good less sensitive setting. Most of the guys that fly them are hotshots and figure everyone else is too. In a pinch go with 1/2 the movement that is suggested in the kit and you won't be far off for your first flights.
