Default RE: Best Trainer???

The Nexstar is goofy to land. The fly-by-wire system seems to turn your rate inputs into position inputs. It teaches you the wrong things and makes it difficult to advance to rate control which is what you need to do any type of fun or interesting flying. Too bad, because it is a really neat idea. It's just not the right thing.

Sig Kadet is fantastic. The price is good, it's easy to put together and it is tough. They land like a dream and they will fly fast with a .46. I have owned two of them and trained 2 more guys with their own.

Even as an experienced RC pilot, I still love to fly the Kadet. The landings are so smooth it is freaky.
