A lot will depend on what you intend when you have learned to fly. If you are going to move on with glow (or gas) powered planes IMO you might just as well start off that way. A lot of the guys at Coffs Harbour where I fly are training with Boomerang ARFs and they seem to be OK. I think there is a 40 and 60 size.

G'day Terry,
I would only advise the Boomerang 40, it is a great trainer, it has semi symetrical wing, & flys very well indeed, good penetration, but the 60 size has a flat bottom wing, not nearly as good, as it won't be much good for basic aerobatics later on. Just my opinion, as I have flown both & taught with both.
