Default RE: need advice

At your stage you will find a 'low wing trainer' like the Pulse easier to fly than a high wing w/ lots of dihedral.

Pulse is a good option, you might like the [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXBMZ5&P=ML]GP Venus 40.[/link] (I love it!) for easy flying and very aerobatic. Flies with a .46, flies much nicer with a .55.

CMPro plans come with lousy instructions, hardware, and covering. They are a headache for inexperienced builders.

My recommendation is to save the scale aerobats for after your first or second low wing plane. They have some bad tendencies you may not be prepared for (tip stalls, instability, etc.)
