I have flown electrics up to a wattage 300l. I am wanting to go to nitro. Im trying to pick between a Great planes U-can-do 30 or a hobbico superstart 40 select rtf 60'' Im looking at getting a RD6000 radio and not sure what engine yet. I know how to fly ok I guess but still probable needs some tweeking. SHould I just go with the u can do?

how bout a midwest aerobat?

U-Can-Do i think is hard
Aerobat is aerobatic!
Listen to Minn and DBCherry, they know more than I do

Get an intermeadiate plane first and find out how good you can fly!!! The planes you want are going to be a hand full and be rekitted the first flight, Gas and electric are a little different to fly.

Glow IS different from electric. You'll be surprised by the increase in speed and performance. (Although the Wattage 300 is a pretty agile airplane.)

I'm hoping that you're going to be flying glow at a club field. If so, go hang out and ask if they might be willing to give you a quick flight on a Buddy Box. (Most clubs have the ability, or someone there will.)

I don't know your level of skill with these things, so I can't really advize you on the U-Can-Do, but I will tell you it would be a handful for someone who isn't farily skilled. You can take it from there.

Good luck, and welcome to the dark side!
Dennis-

I agree with outlaw....maybe a shoulder wing like a stick model or something similar. Several on RCU love the Sig 4*40...maybe that's more your speed.

Should I get a nitro trainer or what? I really like the u-can-do or maybe a sukhio(sp) or cap 232. What would be good. I am a pretty good electric flyer i can hover do hammerheads um just some odd tricks. Im pretty confident that I can fly a u can or something like that but just want to make sure and not be out alot of money. HMMM what to do what to do.



Thanks

I'm going to go out on a limb and say, buy the U-Can-Do, but with two conditions.

1) Set the throws to about half of what's recommended. (If you have dual rates, set the minimum at half.)
2) Go to a club field and have someone get it in the air the first time, then stand by in case you need someone to hand it off to.

Good luck,
Dennis-
