The auction was for an Aerohawk with a Futaba 4 Channel control and the cable to hook up to FMS. It came with an extra battery, a crash and training kit. It was buy it now for $245. I dont know but that sounded like a good deal the only thing was it was being sent from Hong Kong and I heard somewhere not to buy from out of the country.

I really dont want to throw down $200 for Real Flight because there goes a large portion of my budget. I have read that FMS is pretty decent learning wise and I can hook any controller up to that (I just need to build the interface but Im an electrical eng. student so it should not be a problem)

Anyhow like I said....I guess my budget is around $300 to start out....maybe this hobby just is not for me

Thanks,
Kevin
