Lou,

Last Sept. I was fortunate to be able to buddy box two fellows on their PTS Mustangs. They both soloed very quickly. The Simulator helps.

The reasons I did not buy one for myself was that I already had too many transmitters, engines, servos and receivers. The RTF is a great deal. Sure, it is not your ultimate transmitter, but it is the best availble in an RTF.

Now that it will be available as an ARF, I will probably get it. Have six planes flyable and five in the boxes. Really need another. But this thing does fly nicely. Ditch the air brakes.

BUDDY BOX I laid off for 6 years in the 80's. Started again in 87, Crashed two before getting on the buddy box . Two or three flights and I was OK. Highly recomend getting that bit of assistance. But then, there is the simulator that comes with it.
