Considering his revised criteria "I prefer something that I can fly slowly and really practice feeding in inputs without the need to correct immediately to avoid crashing...", I'd say the best bet from your list is the Lazy Tiger P-51 and maybe the Sonic. While it's possible to fly the Uproar slowly, it's got no tendency to correct itself. I've got the MT Extra, and it's definitely not a slow flier. I've heard the same about the ME109 and enough people warned me about the Tequila's bad habits (tendency to snap at unexpected times) that I decided on the MT Extra instead.
You're probably right. I didn't read well enough. I saw the part about "have burned 10 gallons of fuel in a Super Stick 40" and went off on a tangent of trying to find anything that might be light enough for the 46LA to provide
spirited performance.
