That's tall order. At a minimum to build a kit, figure at least $50 on top of kit price. That's just to build kit, not put engine/radio in it. All told you'll wind up with at least $400 invested to build a kit and get it flying, and that's probablly on the low end. When I rentered hobby, I figured to build, equip, and fly an airplane was going to cost me at least $500. I was amazed to find lots of ready to fly airplanes out there for around alot cheaper than that, with the engine/radio already installed. I walked out of LHS with Avistar RTF select, a gallon of fuel, spare props, and the stuff to build a fuel rig and a hand crank pump for right at $350.

So what's your budget?
