Default RE: EDF RTR Kit For Beginner

As others have said, there isn't an EDF plane suitable for a trainer. What you're asking to do is akin to a 15 year old kid with his permit trying to learn to drive on a F-1 car. Disaster waiting to happen. If you're serious about flying an EDF, then get a trainer. You could probably find a used one at a local swap meet or something like that. Once you can successfully fly an aileron equipped trainer, there are slower more tame EDF that you could handle.

Such as: http://www.hobby-lobby.com/f86_skyblazers_edf_jet.htm

On low rates this plane is flyable if you have aileron experience. But I guarantee you if you get any of those EDF you're looking at, you will crash them and will have just wasted a ton of money. Invest in a good radio, get a used trainer from here, RCG, local swap meet, CL, etc and learn to fly with an instructor and save yourself a lot of headache.
