First flights with the Reeduino

I made my first flights with the reeduino a few days ago. It took some time to find an opportunity to make these flights, but now, it's done. And it was a lot of fun, even if there were the first flights with a reeds in my life... Sure, I need some more flights to be absolutely confident, but I can fly and land without problems. I fly with my own design, a very simple one, rudder, elevator and motor only. Nothing special, I needed a model to make a try...
So, now, I have to build another model, something like a Tauri or a Uproar, or??? Or may be go a step further with an Astro Hog? Any idea?

My congratulations too Victor

As Phil said, the
Falcon 56 is a great model, with the added bonus of several sizes, plans available on OZ

Congratulations on your first Reed's flights Victor!
This past summer I enjoyed flying my reeds emulation Sr Falcon & single channel Mini Mambo more than any of my other models.
For your next model you cannot go wrong with a Goldberg Falcon or perhaps a Kazmirski "Orion" or Taurus, or the excellent Astro Hog, then there is the Platt / Kiel Kraft Fleetwing or the old favorite easy flying Smog Hog! (you will have more trouble trying to narrow down your choice than trying to find a suitable model!!!

Excellent, well done Victor
The Goldberg Falcon 56 is another nice reed model, similar to a Tauri but not so heavy and cheaper to build!
Thank you for the relevant advice. It will be a Falcon...
