hey guys, new to RC flying, I currently have a Easy Star and have flown it a few times.. I like the Easy Star, just still learning to fly and such..
Anyways, I was wanting to know if the E-STarter or Slow Stick would be good 2nd planes for me to train on? I thought of these 2 because they have wheels and would like to launch a plan from the ground as well as throw my EasyStar around here and there too..
any suggestions is appreciated.. Also, would the E-Starter handle wind better than my Easy Star and what bout the Slow Stick?

Have flown the Estarter and liked the plane. I have owned several Slow Sticks and love 'em. Believe there are more mods for this plane than almost anything out there. If you are proficient enough I think an aileron plane with a high wing would be a natural progression for you. The SS would be fun but wouldn't necessarily help you progress to the next stage.

by the way, if I wanted to do video, would the E-Starter be suitable? I know I can do it with my Easy-Star... but, no matter what, It'll be a while before I do video, just curious.. im guessing the SS no good for video

The Slow Stick is excellent for video as it will lift a ton! Take a look at the many threads on the SS and you will find lots will have this plane set up with still camera and video cameras. It has a huge wing and light wing loading. Do a search, man, do a search!!
