Hi everybody,

I have been flying about a year now and build my own kits. I have a SIG 4 Star, Mid Star and a trainer (Kadet).
I am interested in getting into pattern flying, at first just to improve my flying skills, and I would like to build my own plane.
Here in South Africa we are limited with choice of aircraft, especially build it yourself kits.
I have found CA models Epsilon planes and can get the 40 size or the 120 size in kit form.
I would like the bigger bird but it is MUCH more expensive when you figure in the servos and engine!

Is the Epsilon 40 a good intro to pattern flying? Is it worth a beginner spending that much more on the 120 size plane or should I move up when I start competing?

Anybody have experience with an Epsilon .40?

Thanks,
Ray
