Maybe a good aileron trainer?
Isn't one reason there is no solid concensus on what RTF plane is the best aileron trainer is because most RTF aileron planes are underpowered with a stock brushed motor? One owner of Hobby-Lobby's new Busy Bee with its brushless outrunner said he felt it was still underpowered.

Wouldn't a 4-channel aileron HZ Super Cub RTF/ARF with at least a 25 amp brushless system offer about the best possible aileron trainer. Isn't one reason most still recommend a pusher prop is because of crashes due primarily to the fact that most of these planes are underpowered with brushed motors that are barely able to perform a ROG.

The following link with photos is excellent.
