Trainer for my dad
 
I just recently baught a st .40 to do a science project at my highschool. I will probabley be done with it in about 1 month. After that I would like to get a .40 size trainer for my dad. I gave it a shot with my dad on my slow stick but i must admit, even though the slow stick flies like 5mph, it flies like @#$@#. Anyway i have got two computer radios, and a trainer cord and pretty much everything else. What trainer flys nicely and isn't expensive. The trainer i learned on has unfortunatly long departed.
Thanks Cameron

Thanks Guys
Tower Trainer looks like a nice deal. Didn't want to spend to much on this bird and 65 is a good price.
Thanks Again

+1 on the tower trainer; it's a fine bird and extremely cheap. There are better but it will do nicely enough.

Notice the difference in wing span. 7" smaller on the kit. On a trainer I would opt for the larger wing. All in all, it is an excellent trainer. I have one, moved on to other planes but keep getting drug back to it. Mostly on windy days were I don't want to chance dumping a more expensive plane. It's fun to wring the heck out of a trainer.
