Hmm .... I'd give a beginner about 8 seconds with a pattern aerobatic before it's plastic bin-bag time.

I take it you can already fly well, and have mastered highwing, lowwing, and 3D funfly planes already?

If so ... should be exciting and fun.

Yup i have a good bit of experience with 3d coolwings.

Have had 3or 4 foamies 3ders. Ha an Airfoils Yak. That thing flew amazing, its half balsa half foam. It should be great fun when i get my hands on it. It has got great reviews on rc groups.

Its just a pity there is no flying clubs here in Mayo. Would like to fly with other people
