Default park flyer

<span lang="EN">

During this last winter I built a G.P. PT-40 never flew it, the field was not open yet, so to pass some time I started a G.P. Super Sporster just need to cover the wing to complete it, both are nitro. I was thinking of buying a electric park flyer before trying one of these expensive planes, I have a lot of time on a flight sim. So I think I can handle a park flyer what would be a good 4ch RTF park flyer?</p></span>

In my opinion save your money...I said in my opinion.....you have a good trainer in the PT-40.......if the local field is not ready...trust me those guys are flying somewhere...get with an instructor and fly.....a sim is not an instructor....please don't try and fly....Good Luck

I gotta agree wth JetMech and CGRetired. You already have a trainer. Find and instructor and get training to fly!!

RTF electrics are not cheap. Like this Hobbico Flyzone Cessna for $170

And this Hobbico Flyzone Cub for $150
