Default A second jet?

Hi, I am new here. I have a Baby boomerang that I can fly ok.
What I am looking for is a second jet that is more like a real jet. I have thought of an F15, as it appears to be fairly easy to fly. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks
Jim

Hi Jim, the F-15, F-16, Gripen, L-39... All very easy to fly jets...

Here are some videos:

I personally love the F-16 1/8, it is very stable and can fly very slow. But it can also handle it's fair share of aerobatics.

Jim -

I've heard good reports about the C-ARF Eurosport. Easy to fly and reasonably priced, comes in 3 nice color schemes.

Thanks for all your help.
I can get another turbine, or use the Wren 54 I have.
The F16 is nice & the Wren should fit in it.
If I go for something larger, I had thought of a Jetcat P120 which would be suitable for many models.

Jim,
If get a 120 the F-15 would be a good second / scale jet. Probably as easy to handle as your Boomer.

BTW where is: Perth, NL, US MINOR OUTLYING ISLANDS

Sorry. I haven't a clue how that came up as my country. I have just found out how to change it.

F-18!!!

If I could go back and do it all over again, I'd have gone from my A-10x to my bug!!
