I posted here a few weeks ago that my son and I were getting into RC planes. We put together a Kadet 40 ARF with a OS.46AX and a 6201 JR radio. It flies beautifully!

Now the next step...
My son after four flights is doing everything but landing. In slight breeze he is flying the length of the runway with about 10 feet of altitude and keeping it perfectly level. He does basic aerobatics (loops, rolls, snap rolls, inverted flight) but with the Kadet they are odd looking at times because that flat wing doesn't like these maneuvers. His instructor is amazed at how quick he is on to this flying thing. I am too as I'm way behind all his skills.

We are already thinking of a second plane that is more aerobatic but not a giant leap to 3D. Something he can have a little more fun with.

We were told by a couple people at the field to think about moving into a "Stick" in a 60 size. We like the looks of the Hanger9 Ultra Stick and the GP Big Stick. Any thoughts on these planes and our thinking at this point?

Thank you for your replies!
