Just be aware that they are already good RC pilots. He says on his
web page that it's not a beginner plane, and he's right.
I am a pilot, and an R/C flyer. I have flown "lawnmower" planes before, and
while I agree its not a beginner plane, its difficulty scale is low.
They are making it look easy, but it's not. If you've never flown an
RC plane before, I'll guarantee you'll never be able to fly one of
those.
This plane IS learnable by anybody would like to try. It is light, easy to
maneuver, and not very powerful, and has the standard 4 channel operation.
While a larger fixed wing plane would be easier to learn on, it is not out
of the question for a "newbie" to be flying this rig with only hours of
practice.
It's almost certainly a handful, especially in the beginning,
for all but the best RC pilots.
I don't agree...Have you ever flown a 5hp 1/4 scale under-wing 8 channel
plane? How about a 10 channel ducted jet?
