Nice summary on the two planes by Chuck W. One thing though. While landings with an Extra or other models with fuselage mounted gear are indeed practically automatic, landings with warbirds, particularly those with wing mounted gear, are anything but. They will indeed teach you to land with the throttle and not the elevator. They take practice and can be frustrating, but the satisfaction you can derive from a smooth, scale landing is a nice part of this hobby (at least for me).
