Thank you for the kind welcome. I am currently building a foamy 3-D. Are there any limits to the size of plane here for build threads? Take care. Scott

Scott, the Nexstar is a very good trainer. I used mine for myself and both my sons. My grandson now flies it. Even if you put it in the ARF version to replace it is only about $100.00.

I learned on one of these http://www.towerhobbies.com/products.../hcaa2125.html

Going with a plane like this gives you more options in the future as you will have a bigger engine. Also the overall larger size makes it handle great and a lot easier to see.
