RE: WARNING AVOID NITRO PLANES!
If you want good flying and spare parts, get the Hobbyzone Super Cub LP. That plane is a great trainer and is a hoot to fly, it also has great low speed characteristics which is a real help when learning to fly. When I was training with it, I went through 7 cowls, 2 wings, and 3 tails, and you can order it all from Hobbyzone's website.
