Hey, yes i too have heard good remarks about the wingo... However--
Price-around $300 for the complete package.
Soarstar-- couldnt find price--it was discontinued-probably around that same amount
What you want to look at is if you want to advance, and if you do how soon you want to.
If you're going to be advancing soon then buy a 4 or 6 channel transmitter. However if you are going to just want a decent quality electric plane (100+possible flights) to just fly around with and not going to want a different plane for a while you might want to look at the Aerobird Challenger. It's half the price (or lower) and still flys good. Check out this website-its that company's main page-

if you want more info just do a search on RCU (this website) for "Aerobird."
I have one and i love it. Lot of fun to just take out and fly. Also this plane can be more aerobatic than either of those so you might have more fun with it. But it does fly around a bit faster than those too. Around 25mph with the 6 cell battery and about 30 with the 7 cell.
Hope this helps!
