unless you can land crosswind with cross coupled airlerons and rudder you aren't ready yet but one of the best beginner twins is the twinstar.

OS 40LAs are much lighter and the Twinstar is no lightweight to start with. Good starter twin.

I liked the Cedar Hobbies Twin Stik to learn on. Easy access to the engines, will fly great on one engine and does not cost a lot.

The Cedar Twin Stick also gets my vote. Aerobatic, but forgiving.

Hi;Twinstar nice easy flyer but don't put in 40s a good 25 FP will give you all you need.Flys good on one engine.Small tanks etc better on small engines.Then I would go to the Cedar hobbies twin and 40s four my next one!!!!My .02 cents

Twin-Stik, hands down; I have one with 2 Magnum 40XL's on it, plenty of power and performance; a great landing plane as well.
