Your Next Model
Once you have mastered your trainer, and received your
"wings", it is time to move on to you next plane.
Many times I see newbies, moving on to their next plane, but they are not
very good flyers. I think they feel that a low wing plane will make them a
better pilot.
Such is not the case, only stick time makes you better. If the trainer you
bought was a brick, then you are dying to move on and put that poor model behind
you.
I feel you are ready to move on, when you can do or attempt to do the
following with your trainer: loops, roll, dead stick landings, a series of touch
and goes, high speed passes, stall turns, and inverted flight.
Your next model should be a mid wing or a low wing trainer with a constant
cord wing and a low wing loading.
An good example of a mid wing trainer is the Sig Mid Star 40.

A good example of a low wing trainer is the Sig Four Star 40
