There are many more good trainers out there, I usually tell people to learn on a Foam RTF Electric Trainer. It's a little cheaper than Glow, and it doesn't hurt as mush if it crashes. (Speaking for myself that is.) After I "Mastered" my Hobby Lobby trainer, I moved up to Glow Planes.
To say what is best is kind of difficult to answer. There are so many on the market and many balances out equally for the "Best" Category.
However, I agree... Hanger 9 is on top in the ARF league. Most of the Planes that will be in my Hanger will be Hanger 9, Goldberg and Great Planes. Oh yea... Sig isn't bad either.
