    Warbirds

    I am starting to get into Electric planes. I currently fly nitro top wing. I am wanting to get into flying electric warbirds. What would you recommend for my first warbird ? I am looking at the FMS T-28 Trojan 1400 mm. Opinions ?

    The T-28 is an excellent choice. Large, and forgiving flight characteristics. I think you will enjoy it quite a bit.

      I buddy box'ed on my instructors E-Flite/Parkzone T-28 1100mm with fixed gear. His had an upgraded motor but he said even with the stock motor it performs really well. Being a beginner/intermediate myself, it is a lot of fun to fly and extremely easy to take-off and land, even moreso than my Sport Cub S2. I'm thinking about making it my first warbird as well!

          You might look at the CJ-6 CAF Trainer by FMS. With built in diehedril wings, I found it a neat alteritive to the T-28.
