Default Has he got a pulse???

The answer is NO!! no uk stores have a pulse xt 40!!!

Is the XT 60 also good as a second plane to follow on from a trainer? I have found a few in the uk, and they are only £10 more (plus a new engine of course but to me new plane = new engine as I only have 1!!!

My choices for a 40 size are the black horse travelair, and thats about it (any other recomendations welcome, but these are the type of look I am after - prefer the pulse, but over two and a half times the price!!) so, stick witha cheap travelair until I am more comfortable then get something with a little more oomph, or get the XT??

No 4* please, I dont want to balsa bash just yet, need all my spare time to fly at the minute!!

Cheers!!

I'm still waiting on my 60 size, but have read that the 60 and 40 fly very similar to each other.

BTW, the 4* is available as an ARF in 40, 60, and 120 size.

Thanks Bob, I will look into a 4* if thats the case (I hope they are available in the Uk!!)

The 60 size is ten a penny on this side of the pond, every shop tells the same story - no 40s, but we have the 60s!!

Now then, wait (for goodness knows how long) for a 40m, or get a 60 and a nice new engine??
