Which Plane?
I got a FMS simulator for Christmas and now I am about to buy a trainer. Kind of narrowed it down to a Super Cub and the Cessna 182. Anybody got any thoughts on these planes? I would like to hear any opinions!

RE: Which Plane?
who makes the cessna 182?
go for a 4 channel plane as this will last you alot more time. If its ART TECH who make the 182 then thats very good but lacks power (great plane for a trainer)
I hear the super cub is well known for what it has done in the way of training
thanks,

Fly Zone makes the Cessna 182. I am going to have to decide between the 2 because the weather is going to break here soon and I really want to fly!

RE: Which Plane?
I went with the E-flight Apprentice and absoulty love it. The motor mount is not very strong and WILL break on nose over crashes, however if you do what your suppose to and not stall it on T/O your good to go. It came RTF with the DX5 but now I find me already wishing I had gone 6 or more channels on my TX right from the get go.
