Default Need help/suggestions

Hey guys,

I'm new on here, and looking for some help. I bought a P-51 a few years back, I got a killer deal I just couldn't pass up. I have always wanted
to get into flying but time/$$ wouldn't allow. Well, I have yet to fly thing, and am scared to. I have driven it around the yard a few times, but it hasn't been fired up in a few yrs.
I know it's not a beginner plane by any means, so that is my problem.
I'm thinking electric would be a better bet to start off with...
I have a JR xf421 ex radio. Which Iknow is probably junk?.. but if I could use it for the plane I can get to train on then i'm happy. Ican get a better radio down the road for the p-51, and the
soon to come arsenal of long-loved planes.
So, to sum it up, What would be a good plane to start with? I don't want something too too small, but maybe not quite as big as mine. which is 58.25'?

anyway any suggestions would be awesome!

Oh and I hope I posted this in the right area, if not, mods, my apologies
