Two great planes to learn with, you can't go very wrong with them. The GWS Slow Stick is nice to get the feel of flying
BUT will not feel like any 40 sized trainer. The Easystar is good too BUT it does not come with the girl.
i too recommend the gws slowstick, its a tough bird, and since it flies so slow when you do crash it only breaks a prop, if that. if you fly over tall grass then it shouldnt be a issue at all. its not easy to fly it in more than 5mph winds, i have flown it in 15+ mph winds but it isnt fun and hard to do. for the first flights make sure their is NO wind.
sims help a lot, but they arnt the real thing.
Jimmy ... mine had a 200W motor to get the CG nice and you should see her fly! I damaged the wings eventually, pulling too many Gs. Its always good to have a GWS Slow Stick to putter about on a nice Sunday morning. A Pink GWS Beaver is cute.
Mr Lock ... Multiplex EasyCub ... that is another good one! Flies better than the MiniMag for beginners.
