Thanks for the input. I am reviewing your replies this morning and appreciate the help. I don't want to give up on the AMA 2 pound 'Park Flier' but I probably have room to fly a larger / faster airplane. My park is a triangle about 150M on a side. Enter these coordinates 47.7647,-117.395149 in http://maps.google.com/ for an aerial view. I really want an outside airplane as I plan to just walk to the park with a couple batteries in my pocket when I get a nice day and work on inverted rudder commands. I am getting it wrong most of the time and the flight deteriorates badly. I had no idea that the batteries would actually cool excessively while in use in cold weather and need to be insulated. My flying buddy who is now learning the advanced schedule has a Brio and speaks highly of it. I will have him bring it in when he is in town and try it out. My local hobby shop owner has a ParkZone Typhoon2 3D RTF, which I also want to try. Has anyone flown pattern with the ParkZone Typhoon?
