Re: Looking to buy a plane I am a New flyer Not necessarily. Now you've got 2 wings to break...  My cub is brand new, 2 fuselages fully equiped with radio gear. Entire package incl transmitter is $200.Tiger Moth is attractive though. Ed

Re: Looking to buy a plane I am a New flyer Radian?? Yeah, the Radian is a great beginner plane I think the guy wants a float plane, or an option to use floats. Maybe somebody can put a radian on floats???(probably..  )For beginner plane with the options of making it a float plane/electric, I agree with Joe Gilbert. Get the Hobbyzone Supercub. It flies great and has a floats option that you can buy. Basically we are talking abut something you bolt-on with no special modifications and you go fly off water. Also, the HZ supercub can easily be modified to add ailerons, so now you have a full-house 4 channel plane that looks great, is easy to fly, and is float-capable Supercub: http://secure.hobbyzone.com/HBZ7300.html Supercub floats: http://secure.hobbyzone.com/search/HBZ7390.html |

Re: Looking to buy a plane I am a New flyer The E Flite Apprentice and the Hobbico NextStar are also good starter planes. The lightweight cub is OK but can't handle windy conditions. As a rule of thumb, the heavier aircraft will fly a bit faster but handle windy conditions much better. In the long run you will be better off buying a decent transmitter like a DX6I that can be used later on for more advanced aircraft. |

Re: Looking to buy a plane I am a New flyer your best bet would be a super cub electric they are great for 1st timers and even for ppl who have been flying for awhile ......and they have the float option i have one from horizon hobbies and i still love it ..but take note make sure you get the one with the 2.4 transmitter ...and enjoy
