Default RE: 2nd Plane

I can second the Tiger2. What wasn't mentioned is that the kit is set up so that you can start it off as a trike gear and switch it over to a tail dragger once you are used to it. I got one to see what the fuss was about and made a tail dragger straight away. Great flying plane and its pretty fast at full throttle. The Super Sportster is also a good choice but a smaller plane which makes it a bit harder to keep track of. The 4*s fly nice but are more floaty than most trainers. Makes it a pain to land if its breezy out! Chop the throttle on the Tiger or a Super Sportster and the plane comes down in a nice predictable glide. If a breeze hits them when landing they may slow down a bit but then keep coming down.
