Default RE: Big Electric OK for Beginner?

Planes that do the best in wind are over 5 pounds. In reality, the plane doesn't care what is pushing it and if the plane is over 5 pounds you should be okay. The only reason electrics are considered bad in wind is because most of them are between .5-2 pounds. When you try to fly a plane like that in wind it is like trying to control a kite without string .
