Hmm..... All good suggestions with what little information you provided....

There is no "perfect" model, why do you think you see guys with so many different ones? lol

If you've not actually started flying then a trainer is in order first, no question. I'll differ with some of the other guys in that I do not think the old tricycle gear high wing is the way to go anymore. I'd look at the Hangar 9 Mustang PTS since it's a low wing taildragger which most of your subsequent models will also be, so why learn a high wing with tricycle gear and then learn a low wing taildragger before getting into the kind of higher performance aerobat you seem to want?

The PTS has several features designed to make it user friendly for the newbie which can be changed/removed as you learn like fixed flaps and drooped outer leading edges, some and I'm not sure if it's the ARF or the RTF can actually have retracts installed.

Once you get used to that then a bigger model with a small gasser may be the way to go in stepping up and there are lots of choices in the 30cc range now that were not available even a few years ago. While these models are not hard to fly, they'll eat a beginner's lunch in a heartbeat.
