I have an 8 years old son and I want to buy him a good RC Plane.He is pretty good in flying a 2 Channel P51 Mustang (unfortunately I have recently crashed it,nose down) and a small RC Jet Plane(see the [link=http://www.aviation-for-kids.com/rc-jet-plane.html]Video[/link])



He is doing very well with a demo version of RealFlight G3 so I think he is ready for a 4 ch plane.He is using only the keyboard but he has a good understanding of the flight geometry.

I have found three 4 channels RC Planes at very attractive prices (around $83) at NitroPlanes.com:

Here are the links:
F4U Corsair 4-Channel

4 CH German Messerschmitt ME-109

4-Channel RTF Spitfire MK2

I like Corsair for it's wing design (it seems more stable in flight).


Initially I was thinking to by a Super Cub from HobyTown but that much more expensive and it has only 3 channels.I have also read a post in another forum about the dificulty to switch from 3 ch to 4 ch,due to de different design of the radio control.
Is there any difference between digital proportional control and full proportional control?

Thank you for your help,

George
