Easier to rig by yourself. Smaller/lighter. Self launching is self-explanatory.

Smaller/hopefully less expensive trailer/needs smaller towplane/new finsh (possibly PU paint)/hopefully auto control hookups.

Electro is auto hookups.
Sparrowhawk R is manual

Leah prefers the weight of the Electro wing to the Cirrus. She also likes like motor on the nose to get me home if needed. Now if only we had enough equity in the house...
