Hi,

I have finally decided to keep my Dynam 4Ch on shelf. I am thinking of buying a new trainer plane.

Is this the good choice? ( plz look at theaccessories included also)

Hi... I saw the video of your last plane and it is to light... you could see it is unstabil even on the ground... You need something that have a little weight...
go for a old school trainer i balsa and ply.
http://www.hangar-9.com/Products/Trainers.aspx
look at world models and greatplanes too.
I also had a Hobbico Nextar which where great.I super frontier senior from world models and a sky raider... al very good trainers.

go for a small 2 stroke engine and these planes will fly them self slow and study.
and buy from some of the big companys... theire instruction books are very good.
And whit a balsa, ply model repering them would be easier.

still it is a good trainer... follow the leads on the top of the beginner side and you will see what the pro is recomending...
That is only real planes not small jokes that would not learn you anything about flying...

and flying whit a nitro engine is more fun then a bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
just remember too go BIG

Actually my budget is preventing from buying a nitroplane..
Because in India Rc prodcuts are very costly. they usually cost twice as much.

What about this one plane ?

I answered you in your other thread but heres a link to Tower-

[link]http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXHCJ2&P=SM[/link]

Don't get the Pico stick version it would be a pain and is not very durable. As far as the Slow Stick, I recomend getting the slope glider version and adding a brushless motor combo from Hobby King. If you decide to go with the GWS plane you will have to get a Transmitter,reciever and two servos along with a battery and charger. I tried to calculate how much it would be total and it is around $100-$125 US dollars. If you are interested in going this way I will provide you with links to everything you need and help you assemble it when you get it. If you can find the parts in India for an amount in your budget get them there to avoid shipping delays.

This "Jacks Hobbies" Looks like an Indian version of Nitro Planes dot com.BW

Ok if your budget is low I would actually have bought a sailplane with a small el engine...
the reason why is that they are as stabile as a trainer and you could see the planes next move before it happends...
This is my thoughts since I have seen and tried small "trainers" that are almost free and they just dont work...
And one thing is for sure when you are getting your first 10min in the air and have a perfect landing you would love this hobby...

But try to get the biggest wingspan you could afford. and it dont have to look nice... dont buy a scale plane they dont fly as good as a "trainer" that is just made just made to fly. said the guy that didnt read the leads about the wrong cg on the blue nose mustong from H9 and went home with 10.000 of them...
