100% agreed with you there Zeeb - in the case of the one P51 PTS ARF that is flying at my field, I helped the new pilot with the assembly process, as I was the one that was going to be training him for the most part. He also bought a Magnum 4 stroke .61 from another pilot that was selling it extremely cheap. It pulls the PTS around very nicely with an APC 12x6.

The RTF is much easier for assembly. And I wasnt aware there is a new radio shipping in the kit now that has more features. A true 6 channel with more functions was the biggest thing I would have wanted with the RTF. If it has it now, then it's probably my suggestion between the 2. Plus the JR sport radio gear will work with either JR or Futaba Transmitters, so if you wanted to just for a Radio upgrade down the line, you won't be limited to just one brand.

Oh - and buy yourself an extra servo and build the plane with adjustible flaps - it's a cool feature to have.
