Default Help me select my trainer

Hi everyone, I am looking to buy a high wing trainer for the summer of 2007. I'd like to get a good value combo, probably within the following but I am listening to any other suggestions. I have read RC Ken's recommended list but since it doesn't include comments about the various models I can't be sure if my list contain good models. Let me know :

1) Hobbico Avistar RTF

2) Hangar 9 Alpha 40 RTF

3) Hangar 9 Arrow 40 RTF

4) Sig Kadet LT 40 ARF. Only problem is it will cost about $100 more than the prevous three.


I think I will get an RTF combo because of the better deal but tell me if I'm wrong. The Avistar comes with a Futaba 4VR and an OS .40 LA. The Alpha and Arrow comes with the Evolution Trainer Power System and the JR Quattro. Can I use both the Futaba and the JR Quattro with a flight simulator ? Finally, in case it affect your recommendation, as a second plane ( a year later ), I'd like to get the Hangar 9 P51 Mustang PTS.


Thank you for your suggestions,
Séb
