RE: ParkZone UM T-28 Brotherhood+Mods
Took my batteries from my mcpx (200 mAH 3.7 30c) I get between 13 and 15 minutes of fast flying flight time they charge on the same unit the plane comes with as well. You just have to have the little addapter cord that the mcpx provides I'm sure you can buy it online. The battery is larger and fit snug in the compartment I didn't notice a weight issue but found the cg is nearly impossible to miss. WIN WIN WIN you can't go wrong with this I have about seven batteries now and am never on the ground

RE: where should i start?
I'd prefer a mid wing being on the more acrobatic side but I'm not sure that would be the best route for myself quite yet, thats why i was thinking of highwing. Isn't 40 and 60 glow size motors what would that be considered as an electric?

RE: where should i start?
Thanks again john I will look into the rouge eagles I've heard of the guys but never payed much attention cause from what I understand about them they don't take kindly to heli flyers at their club so i was never intrested. Im still wondering what would be a good style of plane to start looking towards. I'm not one to just buy the first thing I see. I want to shop around and see whats out there, what will suit me the best at the moment. is there a specific brand i should pay attention to or stay away from? Just looking for ideas.

RE: where should i start?
Thanks John so it would be in my best intrest to look into getting a cub? From what i understand the high wings are the trainers. Growing up i used to fly alcohol nitro mix high wings with my dad in colorado springs. I was taught by a guy named Ivan Muningham few might know him, he passed just after we moved to oregon. Anyways what would be a good trainer that i wont be bored with to quickly? The high wings we flew were all balsa i didnt realize how big foam has become till past few weeks. i dont have the time to be putting a balsa together at moment being 24 with a full time job restricts me from that. Sorry for rambling theres just so many questions and other things to talk about.

where should i start?
I'm not exactly a beginner i have been flying helis for the past two years and had an accident that lost my heli... forever lets just say the river swallowed it . After losing my heli I've desided i am goign to give helis a break and take up model airplanes. i do own and use the phoenix sim also have a um t28. I can fly pretty well on the sim (figure eights, loops, rolls, inverted, and of course can land. Flying the um is great fun i can fly it just fine and land with complete confidence. What i need help figuring out is where to go now I really want a larger model. I've been looking at more parkzone planes like the f4f wildcat. The only bummer about that beautiful looking bird is that it's hand launch and belly land. Gear would be nice. Would it be in my best intrest to look into getting a cub style model before going straight for a scale warbird I'd hate to crash right off the bat. If these larger planes are anything like helis, the sim doesn't mean anything just teaches you orientation. I'm new to RCU any addvise will be more helpful. Thanks Guys
