I now have a Nexstar.What is a good low wing plane to buy after this.I'm considering the sig four star 120.I see large planes in the air better than smaller ones.I want a good 7-9 channel radio with alot of model memory.Any suggestions
In my opinion, you'd do good to save all that money for the time being and pull the motor, tank and radio/servos out of that Nextar and put it in a Pulse or a low wing trainer. A Kaos? Pheonix makes a few nice low wing trainers. The SIG Four Star is a popular choice.
I moved from a trainer to an Advance 40 about 4 months ago. It was enough to learn the differences between a high wing and a low wing plane without worrying about the cost of a 1.20 sized plane. Maybe it could be your 3rd?
That .46 can make your .40 sized low wing trainer a rocket once you're used to it, but they generally fly slow as a trainer for the second plane. You'll spend $150 at most and have that second plane!
