Default Help with kit comparisons!

Hi Guys,

I've settled on a low-wing "sport" plane as my winter building project. I've flown a few ARFs (GP Extra 300s and Sig Somethin Extra in my hangar now) but want to try a kit. I'm considering the following:

Sig Four Star (40 or 60 size)
GP Ultra Sport 40+
GP Super Sporster MKII

I've read a bunch of posts, and these three look like relatively easy builds that will also be fun to fly. Which one would you pick and why?

Thanks!

Carl

If you are proficient with an Extra 300, I would say that you would get bored with a 4* or supersportster.

Go with the Ultra Sport. It's one of the best around
