Ok, I know this subject is like a bad burrito…keeps coming back up. Yes I have searched many other threads here and other forums, online reviews, etc. What I’m looking for is a simple and low maintenance rc plane to fly around the park, but one that will not break within the first couple of flights. I fly rc helis, and my wife wants something she can fly on occasion (the helis are far too intimidating for her). I’m drawn to the EasyStar due to its simplicity and durability, but also looking at the “Hawk” knockoffs for less expensive options. Also catching my eye are the AeroHobby T-Hawk and SkySeeker, as well as HobbyZone Firebird and Aerobird series. I’d appreciate comparisons and opinions from anyone who has direct experience with more than one of these models.

thanks,
