Anyone have an opinion on the Arrow Semi-Semetrical RTF trainer?

Lots of people do

I did a search in the beginner forum for "arrow". Here are a few results. Lots more besides these.

That was my first plane. I loved it. Right now, I've brought it back to life again and I'm teaching my boys (age 6 and 9) to fly on it.

What I liked about it is that I could practice the whole sportsman pattern using my trainer, and thus I didn't get tired of it and feelt the need to get something different right away.

Compared to the usual flat bottom wing trainer, the only dissadvantage is that it lands a little hotter, but you can do a whole lot more with it.

It's a great plane. Just remember to reinforce the fire wall. It vibrated loose after a couple of months. Then again , this is an issue with any ARF.
