First, your pole is in the beginNer area for fuel planes so I would expect you to get more votes for nitro/glow here. If you posted it in the Electric Universe beginner area I would expect you to get more votes for electric trainer.

If you are going to join a club and fly at a club field I would follow the lead of the club instructors. Clubs tend to favor one type over the the other. At our field it is electrics or gliders, no glow.

If you are running glow cars then glow will be easy for you. If you are running electric cars, then electric will be easy.

If you are going to fly outside the club environment in open lots and parkingfields,I would definately get an electric trainer. They tend to be smaller, quieter so you are less likely to be chased off. Andthe electric RTF trainershave gotten quite good. The Parkzone Super Cub is my most recommended RTF electric trainer. The Apprentice, mentioned above is also good.

The beauty of foam is that it is hard to break and easy to fix. No special skills needed. No fixing wood structures and no covering to mess with. But foamies can get beat up. But you can often replace parts fairly easily.

Flying planes is very different from runnign cars. If you stop a car, it just sits there. If you stop a plane, or fly it too slowly,it drops out of the sky
. Cars are 2D and planes are 3D. Very different.

Get some help if you can.
