First low wing plane
I have been flying a stick for a while and was wondering ,can i buy any low wing and make it so that the throws are very low or should a try a specific low wing model first,cause unfortunately i dont have alot of money for 3-4 planes so wondered if i could buy like a Funtana 50 or showtime 50 and trim throws down alot. thanks

RE: First low wing plane
sure you can, better yet have a experienced pilot fly it first trim it out for you and stand by the first few flights until you get comfortable with the plane. Even buddy box, its better to be careful and take it home in one piece. Make sure you check the cg a little nose heavy will help the plane handle better. Good luck

I'd look at the Sig 4-star, Goldberg Tiger-2, Great Planes Rapture .40, World Models Skyraider Mach-II, or a Hanagar-9 Pulse-XT. Depending on your flying skills though, you may be able to handle something like a Sig Somthin Extra, Hangar-9 Twist or a Great Planes U-Can-do 3D just fine as long as you use low rates at first.

Go for the Sig 4 *, you'll love it. 40 or 60 size, depending on your buget. They both fly great and are very good acrobatic trainers.
And that's my 2 cents worth.
