For a few dollars more you can get a Hobbico Superstar 40 with an OS 40 engine. Includes the transimitter and everything you need to fly except your field box and starter. My son and I both learned on this model. I liked it because the engine was easy to start and adjust. Never had any problems. The airplane flew very well and held together with minimal maint. We also used the G.P. flight simulator and amazed at how much the plane flew compared to the flight sim. Very realistic. Kept for a year and to get the basics down and then sold each for 200.00 each. Not bad when you consider the resale value if kept clean and in good working order. Only modification I made was to change the stock fuel tank with a Dubros tank of the same size. This is a must with most stock tanks.
