Default RE: Which one is the best second plane?



I was going to pick "Goldberg Tiger 2/Tiger 60" but it wasn't on the list. The Kyosho Calmato Sport isn't on the list either, but it's very similar to the Goldberg Tiger series. The Great Planes Big Stik and the Great Planes Easy Sport should probably be on your list as well.</p>

Since the Hangar 9 Ultra Stik was on the list, I selected that instead. The Super Stick is probably a nice plane, but the covering on the Ultra Stik is much higher quality.</p>

The folks who selected the Sig Four Star .40 aren't steering you wrong, either. It's a fantastic plane.</p>

I actually have a Phoenix Models Dolphin .40 ARF I'm flying right now with a Magnum XLS .46A on it. I've been surprised at how fast and agile it is. It's an excellent plane and a terrific value, but care would have to be used while setting up the throws if a new pilot were just stepping out of his high wing trainer and into the Dolphin.</p>
