No, I'm gonna have to disagree with that whole line of thinking....if the guy has a radio. serovs, and a .40-.46 engine all he needs is another $70 trainer....you want him to get a whole new plane/battery/charger, set up thats gonna run into $ thousands by the time he's done, and then gonna have to buy a trailer to put it in!!!!And a slow stick is not twitchy ....its slow....I personally got back into it with a pico stick, yeah its light, and yeah you gotta get some batts but if you shop around nowadays that stuff is pretty cheap....Rog
