Default RE: what is a good beginner airplane

I agree. I started out on a Mini Super Cub...same thing, just smaller and cheaper without a steerable tailwheel. Great flying plane, for an electric. A foamy will never fly as good as a larger heavier balsa, but its a start. You can get them for around 120.00...if I am remembering correctly. The full super cub is around 160.00 and is larger with ground steering. They both are great aircraft, and cheaper to repair. A new wing for a Mini Super Cub runs usually around 10 bucks....
