Hi All,
I've spoken to a couple of club members at the site about recommendations for a beginners model and it was suggested that I place the question on the forums as there are sure to be plenty of opinions on the matter. My son has already bought a small model but it's already having problems (Simon managed to land it successfully after the wheels fell off on takeoff on Sat. - pretty impressive!). There seems to be a general consensus that a tail wheel rather than noise wheel is better. Also, folk seem to prefer dihedral wings. Other than that I've no idea where to focus my research so any and all input would be greatly appreciated. If you have had positive experiences with any particular models then please speak up. I noticed a thread by Danlegg on a similar subject but I don't know what he finally decided on.
Thanks - Mike
