If you are building a kit start asap! If you are an ARF flyer, they don't really build them, then wait. Depending on how well you do learning to fly you'll figure out if your plane you built is your second or third. I don't like the looks of the 4-60 myself, how about a King Kobra or a Super Sporters 60? Those are much nicer looking. If you need an intermediate after your trainer grab an Avistar or Arrow before stepping up to your built plane.
