Default RC Car/Truck enthusiast looking to get into flying.

Hi, my name is Jamie. I've been into cars and trucking, building and bashing for around 8 years now but I'd like to broaden my horizons and get into RCaircraft. I've been doing a lot of looking around at planes and Ireally like the look of the Great Planes Twist 40. Iknow it's not a beginner plane by any means but I'd rather buy something that Iwill grow into and not grow out of and what Idid read is that the Twist 40 will take-off and land at around the same speed as a learner plane. I'd just like some thoughts on my ideas.. Am Ibeing too ambitious with the Twist as a first plane? What kind of set-up should Igo for, electric or nitro?

Thanks in advance for all responses.

Jamie
