I'd say if you're interested in electrics, +1 for the Super Cub and the Champ and I'd lean towards the Champ simply for it's small size and being able to fly it anywhere.  I agree with the guys that finding a club and a good instructor and learning to fly and properly land a larger plane is the best way to go.  However, I've just seen so many people invest a lot of money getting started in our hobby, only to find out that, "Wow, this is a lot harder than I thought", get frustrated and give up on it.  And certainly not everyone, some folks take to it like a duck to water, but I've seen a LOT of people give up.  I think that's the biggest selling point of a small, low-cost, electric foamie.  And whether you choose a fuel plane or an electric plane, PLEASE don't be fooled into thinking that electrics are safer than fuel planes.  A prop driven by an electric motor will chop you up just as bad as as glow fuel powered or gasoline powered engine if you're not paying attention to what you're doing.  [:@]  Good luck in your quest and let us know how it goes, hopefully with pictures and videos!
