Welcome hsfd199!!
Since you already are into the RC cars you know to hide the credit cards

. MinnFlyer has the best suggestion to start. Next is to get your butt back here to ask questions, OR look up a club close to you and contact one of the members. Have a nice conversation with them. I would recommend seeking out two or three pilots to get a varying opinion base. Then get your butt back here to ask more questions.
Good luck on your quest!!
