Glenn,

The first trainer plane I ever flew was a Telemaster, not only are they good trainers but they are excellent platforms for camera planes, etc.

Let us know some of your aspirations. Feel free to ask questions and join in discussions. Hope to see you out flying.

Hi Glen and welcome. One of my favorite airplaanes is a 72" electric Telemaster. I enlarged the rudder a bit ( a whole lot), added LEDS and fly it at night!
