Hi jkm7
I have been in R/C since 1972. I have seen many novices become infatuated with a specific model and completely ignore the need to learn to first, LEARN TO FLY R/C. Frequently, these people drop out of this wonderful hobby soon. The experience of learning to fly will expose you to many things you need to learn. I offer you no advice, since you seem to be unable to judge it.
