Default Tower Hobby new BIG trainer

My instructor and I had it up on a VERY windy day and it handled great. My instructor said if the wind wouldn't have been blowing we probably wouldn't of had to been there to help it fly!
Another thing I purchased the Tower .60 engine and during the breakin on a saw horse, the engine was moving the saw horse around without much trouble. (On the second tank of fuel)
Just my two cents worth.

.Tower Hobby was coming out with a bigger trainer that need a 46 engine or better.
I punched in the item number but nothing comes up.
When it was available for sale you were only able to get it in a ARF version.
The TH 60 is what I have on the way.
I also have the Avistar but really enjoy flying the trainer Super Select 40.
I was thinking of mounting some sort of tripod on top and use the OS 40 as a pusher.
If I round off the open nose the pusher type configuration will give it appx 15-20% more efficiency.
At least that's what I got on my ultralight.
Flying is fun and experimenting is even funner
