Want to buy my first R/C Airplane?
I am an absolute beginner in the RC model world, and while I have at times flown real aircraft have no idea how to fly a RC model. I am looking to buy a model aircraft,
I need advice on a beginners model perhaps a powered glider? To learn on I would like it to be easy to build/fly but not to look like a child’s toy (a bit of an ego thing). If you can think of any RTF or ARTF KIT’s (including all the extras i'l need) you have that meet my spec.
BIG THANK YOU
Contact your local RC club. These people are friendly and love to help new comers. They would guide you, teach you and help you out in the beginning stages.
Any ARTF or RTF kit would be great. Go for a high wing model with a span of 48"-60" with .19-.40 motor and a 4 channel radio. This will take you to your intermediate stages when you can convert to a low winger. The radio would be good for many many years.
Good luck and happy landings.

Ask at your local hobby shop about clubs in your area. There may be a club with its own flying field and they would be the people to talk to. At one time everyone was a beginner and had to start some where. Good luck
