If you are now looking at Multiplex virtually eveyone knows how well the Aromaster flies and the quality of it but one my main reasons for recommending their products is the durability.
The MiniMag I've flown into a fence twice, once trying to land on a strip that was too narrow and cross wind took it into a fence post, simply put some white duct tape over the indent so the aerodynamics were the same and to make it look better, 2nd time I started using bigger batteries and without realising where it was bigger it was covering the ESC which caused it to overheat and cut out, did a deadstick as best I could but ran out of runway, virtually no damage at all apart from had to glue the motor mount back in. Was letting a friend have a go on a deserted beach and they crashed it thought it would be totalled form the distance, maybe was just lucky but literally picked it up checked it over and ready to fly again.
My Acromaster I changed the battery cut out from soft to hard, had literally done a low pass the length of the strip at speed, went for a hard vertical pull up at the end of the pass and the battery failed. didn't have enough time to re-arm the ESC before it crunched into the ground, the second bad one I went to trim the ailerons and the trim tab on the TX got stuck putting the trim to full right, as you can imagine it was flying like a pig with bricks strapped to its back and came down nose 1st into the ground, the only damage was some cosmetic to the underside of the fuselage whcih a bit of CA, new prop and I was flying again !!!!!!

Opjose,

As you say you can install the ailerons but use only 3 channel on the MiniMag to start with, if this person is going to have an experienced pilot teaching buddy boxing them then they're probably fine to start with 4 channel and aileron straight off the bat anyway !!!!!!!!!!

I know some people have had problems with the ACT on the Super Cub but for me I don't think but I do but know it saved my plane on at least 4 occasions as I was learning but after the 8th or so flight switched it off !!!!!!!
I still switch it on and prefer to teach absolute newbie friends on the Super Cub, ACT gives me time to grab the box off them when it's neccassary rather than the plane heading towards the ground full throttle, also it flies slightly slower than the MiniMag (although I do have brushless ine the MiniMag) which I also think is good for the complete newbie and gives them more time to think and correct wrong inputs !!!!!!!
