Default RE: A good kit over the winter

Hi Yub Yub,

Another great kit that you can get is either the Ultrasport 40 or Ultrasport 60 ($99 and $139, respectively). They are straight forward kits, easy to put together with the exception of doing alot of carving and sanding on the nose. The ultrasport is a wonderful flyer with no bad habits and there are several build threads here on RCU. I am currently building an Ultrasport 60 with retracts and flaps and I have another one still in the box. Also, an Easysport 40 is also a very easy build and a very aerobatic "Sunday flyer." Its better than a trainer but it is no Extra or Cap either. The Easysport 40 was the first kit that I built and I built it like a tank. It has been through several crashes over the past 11 years but still flies great.
Happy flying and soft landings!
