what do you guys think of this plane combo. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1
$95 for shipping plus whatever the bid is. I think if the total is under $200 it is worth it, even if it needs alittle work.
What is that servo that has all the glue around it? Looks like its on the under side of the wing.
I dont mind buying used, but i dont want junk

this alsot seems pretty nice, but it doesnt look like a trainer and may be alittle out of my league: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1
You have no idea what you are buying on EBAY and the seller doesn't even know what he is selling in this case. He advertised a "Piper Cub trainer" but in reality is selling a Carl Goldberg Eagle 2 trainer. Not even close to the same thing. He probably bought it used himself somewhere. It's used, you don't know if anything works or if it has been crashed or how badly. No warranties either.

You'd be much better off buying something like http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...=LXCXF4**&P=ML and getting warranties, discounts and free shipping I believe.

Far too many beginners buy crap on EBAY and get burned.
