RE: arf tx and rx
That transmitter is a short range device which I would recommend that you NOT try to use with a plane.
Since it sounds like you are new at this, the best advice anyone can give you is to find a local club, check out their field, meetings and training sessions, and join up.
DO NOT purchase any planes or hardware until you do so. You will come away with a greatly changed view point and you may discover that your initial approach may not have been the best.
