My club is ending its season as the Soccer teams take over
our flying field, what is the best indoor plane for someone
with very little skill?

Those examples are exactly what I was looking for. I have
seen the first one fly (but did not know its name) at the
group, it flies at about one mile per hour and is very
maneuverable. The second example is just like my GSW Slow
Stick, but much smaller. I may start out with the first one
and upgrade to the second one as my skills improve.

I thought I saw an ad in FlyRC for the slow stick and micro slow stick.
Why don't you just get a micro slow stick?

They are is Pico Stick and a Micro Stick but neither one of
these weighs anywhere near as little as 1/2 oz.

OK. People in our club fly some heavy stuff indoors compared to that 1/2
oz.

One of them flies one of these: http://www.maxfordusa.com/gm-jenny-38-

Of course, they are flying in an old school gym. Lots of room.
