Dan is correct about the Easy Star. I taught my brother in law to fly on one of those. I would recommend making the rudder bigger by adding a piece of thin plastic until the rudder was twice its current width. It will turn much better that way. gv

Ditto to what George said!

There are some better entry level electric planes than the Endurance. The Endurance was designed for those who already know how to fly. The best advice anyone can give you is to get with some locals that fly sailplanes. Most major cities have glider clubs, and if not, then several modelers who fly sailplane in an 'unorganized' fashion. What city are you in? Hopefully someone on this list can contact you and show you the ropes before you plop down your hard earned $. As for your first sailplane, the Gentle Lady ARF or the Spirit ARF are good entry level planes. They are not electrics though.

Have seen a Goldberg Endurance 400 at the local hobby shop and wonder whether anyone has experience with this model. Also would like to find a DLG to learn on with some help at the flying site.
