RE: new to flying
I would go with Sig. For the radio, you might consider spending a bit more to get the 6EXA. I think it's a great radio. Things like electronic trims and end point adjustment are worth the extra $30. The OS LA series are ok. However, as has already been mentioned, there are better choices. Tower and Thunder Tiger both have strong .46 engines which are just as powerful as the .60 LA.
