Applewood Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I keep on going around in circles (no flying pun intended) trying to decide upon my next plane. I fly solo in a large private field. The field has vey long grass at the moment so belly landing is in order, once it's cut the ground will still be quite rough so tough large wheel landing gear or belly landing is going to be required. I've presently got some helis, small quads and champ and the delta ray. The DR is good fun but a bit slow and I'm looking forward to moving to the next stage and progress into more aerobatic fun! Have a programmable tx, so just need bnf dsmx etc. I've not got space for a massive collection of planes, so looking for something that will be a challenge and something to grow into. I'm looking at Parkzone t-28 or p51 Artizan Night visionaire Eflite sukhoi su29 Hobbyzone 4fu corsair s Hobbyking Bixler 3 PNP or kit Hobbyking EFX racer ripmax chris foss Wok 4 foam-e Mk2+ Hobbyking AXN Floater-Jet Apprentice S (probably not that much improvement on DR) Any advice would be really appreciated.

Gary Manuel Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Try one of these: **LINK** Great for hand launching and belly landings (just leave the undercarriage off) - it's virtually indestructable and will do anything you can think of. The best twenty quid I ever spent . I never go to the field without mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
