Whelp, the time has come......for a bird with ailerons! So far ive flown a gental lady (glider) and a GWS cub (slowfly) both of which are easy to fly non-aileron planes. I think its time to move on. Id like to get something fairly slow flying and easy to control in the .061-.15 range. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! One other thing: i live in alaska and can not get any ground deliveries here. I will pay for 2nd day air (by plane), but i'd really rather not (it was 20+ bucks just to get my cub here!) Please suggest companies that will ship USPS. thanx!

A lot of my friends learned to fly using the Goldberg Freedom 20.
It's got ggreat looks, builds VERY fast and it flies incredibly well.
It can easily handle engines frm .20 up to mild .40's.
It can take some punishment too :)
I I was gonna learn all over again, I'd go with that one and a decent .25 engine.

I like JKA's methods of construction...
Look at the Big T's construction link...amazing...
COroplast and pink foam core....SUPER EASY!
