    Help! Need a good plane for windy days 30 to 50cc

    Seriously, get a gyro. Makes windy day flying much more enjoyable. I like the Aura 8. It is reasonably priced. I have one in a small jet and love it. No joke, we test flew a hand launch turbine plane in sustained 30mph with gusts over 40. A faster sport plane will handle wind well too.

    Jet Central Super Eagle Kero start conversion

    There is a difference between auto-start and kero start. That says autostart with gas meaning propane. The only real disadvantage to gas start is having to carry a small propane cannister with you. There are actually advantages to gas start.

    Esprit Tech Jeti DC-24 Radio System

    Their radios are interesting particularly their telemetry integration. Their US distributor is THE WORST on forums.

    Kingtech K45G powered Preceptor

    This is a plane I have been working with over the past few months. I was not terribly pleased with the way it flew at first. with some very simple mods I have gotten it to where I really like this plane.

    Gyro's for planes
