While the Twist can be "toned down" I really don't recommend it for a second plane. The Twist, and it's counterpart the Sig Something Extra, are designed to be aerobats. I have flown both of them and they will turn loose and do rolls until the cows come home. If you're not ready for it you can get in trouble in a heartbeat. I would highly recommend getting the 4-star as your second plane and then consider the Twist as a 3rd plane. I've seen a lot of people move up to this plane before they were really ready for it and get into trouble with it. Yes you can "take it easy" with it, but the problem comes in when something unexpected happens. Then the pilot tries to get out of it in a panic and just makes the situation worse because the plane is now out of control for him.

Hope this helps
