I agree with Ken Erickson. The Skyraider Mach II is a fantastic aeroplane. Probably the best spent money in my RC career.

It's cheap; I can relax while flying and try new maneuvers. It can go fast with a 40LA and perform aerobatics. It can fly slowly and putt around the field at 1/4 throttle. Gentle and straight forward stall in most situations.
