My wife wants a new plane and she's currently looking in to the Hangar 9 Super Stick 40. She has had this plane in the past and she's very confortable with it ... I would like her to get a nicer-looking airplane so can anyone please suggest a plane in the 40's size that flies similar to sticks but has better looks ?

H9 Sport Cap .40 is an excellent flying bird - used a .72 Saito on mine and was one of the best flying birds I've ever flown!

Right now Chief Aircraft has the Hangar 9 Sport Cap 40 for $99 plus $10 shipping.

I like the looks of the great planes super sportster, which comes in both a kit and an arf form. It flies very well.

thanks for the replies ... she already has a Kyosho Cap 232 w/Saito 91 but she's kind of scared flying that plane ...

Any other suggestions ?

To your wife....I probably would not have bought the Hanger 9 Cap232 sport 40 as I thought I might have trouble getting more than one flight out of it. Buuuuut.....local hobby shop got in 30 of them and sold them for $89.95 apiece!!! Wife said she owed me a plane for past birthday, so I got one and am not sorry. Put a Saito 72 on it and have only made three flights on it, but can't wait to improve my flying the plane. I get a little bolder with each flight. Oh, the shop sold out in five days. The trick on this plane is it carries a SPORT wing and slightly longer fuselage. So it will do all the aerobatics the scale 232 would do, but is more forgiving, although mine did a snap roll I did not put in. It's an ARF, so you just assemble it. My observations.

Sig 4 Star 60. GREAT plane, easy to fly, and will do areobatics if you give the the controls more throw.

The Hanger 9 Arresti is about as "Sporty" as you can get.
