My advice would be DON'T buy anything just yet. Start by going to the AMA website, click on "find a club", punch in your zip code, select distance away (10 miles, 25 miles, 50 miles,etc), and a list of local clubs will appear. Visit thier websites and select several that look good to you. Contact and visit the clubs of your choice and talk to thier instructor. Get his input on what airplanes he would like to teach you on. Join AMA, join the local club, buy the recomended airplane, and listen to the instructor. This is the path to success! If your Corsair looks nice hang it up in your shop, room, garage or other spot that you can admire it untill your ready to fly it (at least 3 or 4 planes down the road). The servos, RX, and other parts could be "borrowed" to install in an ARF trainer if money dictates that route. Maybe the engine too. Take it with you for your instructor's opinion. All new equipment in the trainer would be nice but let your wallet be your guide. Read all the other threads in this beginers forum and learn from thier experiences, good and bad.
