Looking for recommendations for an entry-level twin aircraft kit
 
I am looking for a recommendation for a good entry-level twin aircraft. I like primarily sport flying so scale looks are not important to me. Here are some "must have" features that I am looking for:

- engines not bigger than .55 2-stroke or 4-stroke equivalent
- removable wings for easy transport
- must be able to work with a 6-channel computer radio (not planning on putting retracts)
- must be able to fly OK on one engine (in case of a dead stick)
- must be a good quality kit (scratch-building is not an option at this time)


I have know idea if such an animal exists, but perhaps you can suggest something that at least comes close :D

The Hobbico Twinstar is supposed to be a good twin starter. I have seen them fly, but have not owned one. Good Luck, Dave

Twin-air 45. Great easy flying airplane. Mine has Saito 40s, and flies well on 1 engine. Very enjoyable kit to build.

I am closing this thread down as there is a duplicate thread running in the twins forum. Thanks Dave
