That's a tough question to answer for someone that doesn't know you. You need to decide how much you want to get in to this hobby. Think honestly about how involved you get in anything you do. If you're the type of person that usually gets in to something and gets bored with it pretty quickly, you'll want to go cheap. The next part of that equation is that in order to get an electric that will provide the thrills of a glow, you'll end up spending about the same amount of money, although you won't need as much support equipment. I'm a glow guy, but I'd love to get a little electric slow flyer to putter around the park and relax with.

The end decision is up to you, but I will offer some advice about advice. Remember that anything anybody tells you is colored by what THEY like. I lean toward glow because I fly glow, not because it's better.
