Second Flight Yesterday

The second flight of my scratch-built RC plane was its last, not because it crashed but because it simply did not fly well enough. Space is at a premium. I don't have room for a mediocre plane. I stripped out the motor and servos and other gear. I think I'll order some kind of ARF or PNP aircraft, and use one of two 2.4 GHZ transmitter/receiver combos I've got sitting around, unused. A PNP version of the FMS 1280 Easy Trainer would be great, if I can use batteries I already have. A Bixler powered glider would be OK too. I've got a lot of options. I've got room for one more plane with up to 55" wingspan.
