Default RE: Experts wanted on 2nd plane selection!

My Electric-Plane is a Hobbico Superstar W/ailerons (four channel). Trouble is, it is a bothersome tail dragger that wants to torque spin on the ground. It would be very hard to install a steerable tail wheel. I just added an idler wheel, but it did not help much. My instructor always has to do the take-off, and this is embaressing for me. I really would like to get a nitro except I have no experience w/nitro. Whatever I get, the instructors will still buddy box me (I am lucky to be in a great club). I thank you all for the planes that you suggested. I will look at them all, and also show the instructors before I buy. Any more ideas will be appreciated. Mike
