RE: Is this good for first try?
Someone else mentioned the BTE Venture .60. It's aerobatic, easy building and comes with everything you need except the glue and a couple misc items. It's only $150 with the fiberglass wheel pants. You haven't listened to anyone else and you went from 300 Extras to 3 channel park flyers. I know very little and I've been flying again for about a year. I just now got my first low wing plane.
You said you "knew how to assemble". Well, bolting on a stab is much different than lining one up and applying epoxy, centering a wing joint etc. Not to mention building a turtlle deck, creating a fillet, or making a straight-flat fuse.
If you're just starting out look [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXJA29&P=0]HERE[/link] for a kit.

Here is everything you need to know about a V-60. It's really a modified Four Star that several others mentioned.

Here are some pics to show you what the end result could be. Otherwise, imagine a pile of toothpicks and that WILL be your end result! Good Luck...
