The Tower trainer is actually the Hobbico superstar just renamed i think. Anyways, my son is nine and flies the heck out of his trainers(he has the tower and the superstar). He can fly those trainers from one side of the field to the other inverted, rolls, loops, landings, and it's as reliable as your best friend everytime. His was the arf so it has the evolution trainer setup on it. He has wrecked the tower, tore the gear out from under it!! Filleted the whole nose open but it was back together in one evening and going again!! Love these planes
