Default RE: Beginners FAQ?? We need your help!!!

Great job gentlemen. I cought this thread while searching for answers to get into RC aviation(yes, I'm a noob to RC aviation and have never touched any RC plane beyond a toy one), as I'm an experienced(not necisarily good) RC driver and an aviation fan. One thing I haven't seen covered on this site is the arrival of Hangar 9's Progressive Trainer System(PTS) P-51 Mustang. I did notice that you do have questions in regards to warbirds as first planes, but nothing of the PTS.

So here's my questions to add to your growing list:

Are Progressive Trainer System equipped warbirds a good substitute for a traditional trainer?
Will the fact that it's a taildragger help teach better "stick and rudder"(1:1 aviation term) skills?
Will the fact that it's a taildragger hinder my training severely?

I hope ya'll feel that these are viable questions for your FAQ. Good luck with the completion of the FAQ.
