RE: beginner rc airplane
I started with the Parkzone Decathlon. I would suggest any of the three channel Parkzone planes. The pod and boom planes like the red hawk are ok but do not add the skills that you need to progress in the hobby. Same with the aero scout. The best thing to do is go to a local hobby shop and ask them. If those are the only planes you are willing to buy go with the CC flyer. But IMHO I would try to find one of the Parkzone planes b/c they fly good, you can find parts at any hobbyshope, and they are reasonably priced.
