I really like both planes, the pulse and cherokee, but one question, would the pulse be better for me to get ready for the P51 since it is a tail dragger and not a TRI gear like the Cherokee? I did notice on the video the pulse likes too bounce and noticed on my sim that I have to aim the P-51 at the ground until the last minute than use throttle for altitude and very little elevator just before touch down to make it smooth, just like when I fly real aircraft, so it all applies and I am glad I have a bit of a head start knowing ALOT about how planes work and just how much each little movement matters, now when I am flying a real chopper my hands are sweaty, no room for mistakes I do have 4 RC helis but I think I may get out of those as I really like planes alot more, now in real life flying I can not decide. You have all been great, I will let you know what I will decide too go with, most likely it will be the Cherokee because above mentioned that the Pulse is built a little delicate, a strong landing gear is a must IMO. Now for those who have the P-51 how strong are the landing gear on those birds? Are they really built up or are they flimsy? ALso one more question, does anyone know where I can get snow skis for my ALpha 40? I love flying it in the winter and landing in the snow. I looked but cant find them anywhere and I know they make them as I used to have a Tiger Trainer 40 but sold it before I flew it the 5th time and got out of the hobby until I got back in with the alpha 40. Thanks again fellas.
