The Radian will have decent if not exceptional electrics. Spektrum gear is well known and accepted.

The Sonic electrics are likely to be bottom of the heap. If something goes wrong....it'll likely to be unfix-able. If you try to sell parts (like the transmitter or receiver if you upgrade later, no one will want them.

Short answer, go for the Radian, it will be worth the extra cost. If you got to go cheap get a Hawk Sky or a Bixler, both are copies of the Easy.
Get the Radian later.

Having said that I personally would not recommend either as a trainer for someone with no flight experience. You WILL crash them and they are NOT sturdy. Gliders are made light to fly on thermal updrafts, not be abused by learning pilots.

Get a Multiplex Easy Star instead. If you don't ruin it completely you can even sell it.
Thank you so much for your advices flydiver. I heard many glider owners tried Radian or still using their Radian.

But i guess i' m closer to Sonic. I' m not professional into planes but full 4 channel control with the addition of ailerons on Sonic, look better then Radian. Of course it's my personal opinion.

I have been into simulator for weeks. I' ll better and will be experienced as long as i keep practice.
