Complete n00b getting into the biz
Be VERY careful! Do not buy any of the inexpensive electrics on eBay until you KNOW what you're doing.
Many of those "deals" are cheap pieces of crap that very good RC pilots can't fly. Usually because they don't have enough power to get into, or stay in the air.
Look for a local club, or at least someone near you who's already made the mistakes. You will do much better with an instructor and good equipment from the beginning.
Best of luck, and welcome to a great hobby!
