None of them are small enough to fly in a backyard that size in a beginner's hands. If there is a park that you can fly in or maybe a soccer field the Hobby Zone Super Cub is tough to beat as a simple beginner's plane, assuming it's set up right. The micros are more difficult to fly than the bigger models so you'll need some space to recover from mistakes.
Well, the Vapor is, but it's quite light and reacts pretty badly to wind... as do most of those very small and very light aircraft. But, The Bug is pretty neat, and, as it turns out, pretty tough!!! It uses a 320 mah 2 cell LiPo and a very small "CD-ROM" type motor.
