Want to get into Radio Contolled Flight?
Here is a few suggestions..
The Super Cub is a basic 3 channel design (throttle, elevator & rudder) with good wing dihedral for self leveling tendencies.
While it has plenty of power for short take offs, it can glide quite slowly and has a gentle stall characteristic.

The AXN is a bit more advanced than the Super Cub with a 4 channel design (throttle, aileron, elevator & rudder) with no wing dihedral, however turned up wingtips for a gentle stall characteristic.
It has no undercarriage, so it requires a hand launch which while can be performed by the pilot, is better with a 2nd person.
On the other hand, it can be landed on most level surfaces if the belly is protected with some fibre reinforced tape.
If coupled with the Eagletree Guardian Stabiliser, the AXN can be a great beginners plane, yet have the scope to extend into advanced flight
