My friend if you what to break into pattern type flying get yourself a GP Venus II. I have been flying one for 3 months and for the price they can't be beat. I have a Typhoon 2 meter ship which flys a bit better but costs 3 times as much and is more hassles. A Venus II & an OS 120 4 stroke, a Saito 125 or a YS 110, that's the ticket.
