2nd plane
 

Sig Somethin Extra! Awsome plane and it won't take you long to build. Its all Lazer cut and man you have no idea how much time that saves! I am building a topcap right now and I just wish it was cut!

I have the Sig somethin extra for my second plane right now and it rocks! 40 flights and counting OS 70 surpass for engine

Which direction do you want to go?

Precision Aerobatics: Try a "Stick" or a Four Star. Plan on a plane that looks like the Sig Kobra/King Kobra next (there's a close appearing ARF...)

Fun Fly.. the Somethin Extra is a good next plane, but tone down the controls for a while Its a BIG jumb from a trainer.

Heading for flying the heavy warbirds, get the Four Star, and when you get good with it, start slowly adding weight on the CG until its up to 7 lbs.

There's other directions... and other choices...

The Four Star is a low wing monoplane, with fully symetrical wing. It is listed by Sig as being useful as a primary trainer. The wing planeform is typical of trainers, and it has good dihedral.

Trimmed correctly and with reduced control throws, I have successfully used mine to give lessons to visitors to the club field.

The bad rep it has about landing comes from its extreme light weight, and tendancy to float right on by the runway. This can be completely cured by changing from the typical 10X6 prop used on a .40 to a 11 X4, allowing the plane to slow down better with the engine at idle.

typical modification is to clip the outermost bay off the wing to improve roll rate and increase wing loading (as a partial cure of it floating past the runway... but it'll still be light.)

with a low end .40, such as the O.S. LA or Magnum XL, it is capable of doing the entire AMA Sportsman Aerobatic pattern. ... without any miodifications to the kit. It is also able to compete at Fun Fly events.
