I had a Goldberg Tiger and have flown a 4*. I wouldn't recomend a Tiger for training. It comes in solid when landing but probably not slow enough for most new flyers when learning how to land. The 4* will slow down to a very slow walk and remain controllable, very trainer like! Its why I don't like it for myself but would lend it self well as a trainer much better than a Tiger. [8D]
