I recommend a Sim (G2 works good) and soe altitude. Now many of the guys here might not fully support this but I wouldn't waste my money on something I could turn to sawdust if I mess up. I have done that way too many times. I fly one of these http://www.spadtothebone.com/SPAD/SPA3D/ Its VERY strong, crash resistant, hovers easily on a 40 LA nad bst of al costs about 10 bucks for materials. Thats about 5 for a total rebuild if ya manage to crash that hard. Good luck
