Default RE: ultra stick as a second plane

thanks alot for all the replys,
i knew they were real good in the wind & real stable but i never even thought about the high wing vs low wing thing. the club member i was talking about just bought a 4 star 40. i know alot of people like them as a second plane but i think the US is a better second if for no other reason than it will slow down more & not balloon around as much on landing. the US was the first plane i ever landed. it was so much easier to land than my trainer. i set it up w/ quad flaps. i had the mix on a 3 position switch. low position was flaps tied to rons for full span ailerons, mid. pos. was no mix & up pos. was ele. to flaps [ flaps up with ele. up] crow or butterfly was on a seperate switch. i bought a 9c trans so i could do all the mixes. the only problem was i had to use the glider program to do crow so i lost my throttle cut. which was a small price to pay. thanks again guys,
