Default RE: Second Plane advice

Steve is right. Take a look at the review that Minnflyer did on the Goldberg Protege. I have one and love it. This too would make an outstanding second plane. Although it's a high-wing plane, it is one capable plane and flys very well, and lands like a trainer.

Mine is powered by the OS .75 AX. The review suggests an OS .55 AX. Either way, you got a winner with that model.

And a third consideration would be the Goldberg Tiger 60.. this is a low wing plane and is equally as good for all the reasons already mentioned. Power that with an OS .75 AX or though, at a minimum.

(Yeah, I favor the OS engines, and there is a reason for that. I've tried many different engines and always come back to my OS engines as being the most reliable and easy to start and maintain).
