Everybody,

if i were to get my first low wing plane what would you suggest?

i have heard of these models: Yak 54, Extra 300 and 330s, the Giles 202...
Like has already been mentioned, don''t get one of these for your first low wing plane. I wouldn''t even consider a scale plane at all. Take a look at the Sig 4-Star, Great Planes Rapture, Hangar-9 Pulse-XT, Goldberg Tiger-2, World Models Sky Raider Mach-2, and so on. Save the scale aerobatic plane for #3 or maybe even #4. How do I know this? I bought a Sukhoi before I was ready for it a few years back. It would snap, tip stall and do all sorts of other stuff that I knew nothing about yet. Luckily I never destroyed it but I was so scared to fly it that I sold it.
