The HZSC was my first plane also and could not believe how battered they can get and still fly. I have moved on to lots of other planes both electric and glow and ANY plane that is considered a trainer you should be alright with with your dads help. A flat bottom airfoil like the super cub is going to be easier to fly than a semi-symmetrical like the Hobby star or like my Avistar.

Either way GET A PLANE!!!


Here's my new to me, beater. Its all spruced up with new rubber bands and new tires
