Ya I own a aerobird too great plane, also own some other electrics similiar to it. Great starting point, beats nothing. You will have tons of fun with those type of planes, I still fly them when I get down and out in the nitro world.

Well, I finally purchased the Extra Easy, great beautiful plane !! I flew it the other day under some gusty winds at time, should have known better. Flew it great for it seemed 15 mins or more, did some fancy loops ect. Landing though got me, wind kept catching it and taking it where it wanted to go, landing was rough I will say and thats all Im going to say =D. Repairs was just alot of minor work here and there involving tape and glue and a new $20 rudder piece, all said and done its actually better that new. Lot more stable with the work I did now verses out of the box.

I must say if anyone gets this plane be ready for a minor trim on your elevator controls, this plane likes to float on landings, and also elevate up for its AOA. I know this now, and have over come it and ready for my next flight which will be alot better unless something out of my hands happens =).

Anyways, I will highly recommend this plane to any one as a great trainer, the addons for it and the aerobatic tricks it can handle puts it even outside the trainer category, the model right under it is a great one too, the alpha trainer. All in all you just cant beat these 2 hangar 9 planes. Hats off to the company.
