Don't buy glow fuel by the quart, it 's much too expensive that way. (Have you been looking at the Tower catalog?)

Fuel is $13 to $!9 per gallon in Massachusetts depending on where you go. Is that expensive? Well, with your trainer and a .40 size engine, that's about 3 1/2 hours of flying time. For me, that's cheap enough.

By the way, props are cheap enough at $2 or $3 each. You'll probably break a few while learning, and if you have to go home for the day because you broke a prop, it stinks.

Fuel lines are usually purchased seperately. (They don't come with most plane kits or ARF's, but should come with RTF's.)

Good luck.
