Hi all

I'm looking for a second plane after our World Star 40. I've flown electrics before, but this is our first IC plane.

In doing my research I've come up with 2 categories of planes - sports planes (such as the world models Super Sports 40), and fun fly or stunt planes (like ugly sticks). Can someone please explain the difference?

Is one more aerobatic than another? Would I be right in thinking that the sticks are aerobatic at slower speeds than the sport planes? Are sport planes faster? Is one better for a second plane than another, or does it depend on the type of flying you enjoy? Is one going to last longer (not grow out of it so fast)?

I'm trying to choose between the world models Super Sports 40 and their Super Stunt 40 (another version of the ugly stick as far as I can tell) - see pics below. The super stunt looks (to the layman) very similar to our high wing trainer (high wing, same wing span, larger wing area) - will it fly like the trainer?

Please help!

Many thanks
