back to basics. was created by Ex-Member
as my flying has gone backwards i have decided to go back to the beginning and start again.

so i am looking for a basic electric trainer.
the multiplex fun cub looks interesting but needs all the electrics fitting.
the wot 4 foamy is complete apart from rx, works out cheaper in the end than the fun cub.
any other trainers i can look at.

bear in mind i am
a) bloody tight
b) snowed under with builds, so need an artf
c) broke.
d) fly in a small area so 12' wingspan monsters are out. :P

thank you for your time.

The wot foamy is good but poor quality.You would probably remove most of the original servos and change them.Some folks have rtemoved the lot and replaced it all.I love my Fun Cub and have had it 18 months and still enjoy it.The swift comes with electric conversion and is excellant .Given the choice it has to be the Fun Cub

thanks for the offer though.
i am just snowed under with builds, these hurricanes are taking all my time and i dont fancy building a trainer at the mo.
plus i hate having too many builds on the go at once, i HAVE to finish a build before i can start another.
having the vickers part built is winding me right up at the moment, i keep looking at it and keep thinking of breaking it up so it does not sit there taunting me.
just want something cheap that i can use to relearn with.
i'm not very good with foam, cant get the hang of it and i always build things that are complicated. :unsure:

It is very expensive, because I fitted a new brushless motor and bec.It needs a little TLC,like the screen fell out,but it is complete, and it has to be,no negotiation or haggling FREE
