Not for a beginner.

Unless you have flown one yourself, you have no room to talk.
I have plenty of room to talk from having flown several and tried to teach novices on them. I don't pull my advise outta my rear. Anything I post is something I've either done or seen done. I'm glad you love your Duracrap, I, and many others, hate them.

Lets see your balsa plane have a radio failure, hit a tree, and be ready to fly the next day.
Yea? A brick can do that.
