Default RE: First Kit Build Question

If you already have a high wing trainer to fly, and want to try building something fairly basic, but something that would make a good second plane and has more personality than a stik, look at a 4-Star 40 kit. Fuselage is slab-sided, and the wing is constant-chord with simple tips, you can use everything that came out of the PTS (Rx, servos, battery, etc.). It flies very well, is stable but does good beginning aerobatics. It is a tail-dragger, though. If you want a tricycle gear, look at the Mid-Star, similar design and performance with a mid wing.
