Are you flying at a park or do you have a flying field? If your at a park then stick to electrics. A [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXGNE8&P=0]Zagi tazz[/link] flying wing would be a great second plane to play with. It's really fast but you just throttle back while you learn to fly it. There virtually indestructible, there really cool because the design is so wrong. Get a 6 channel radio with mixing like this [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCZR6**&P=0]radio 6xa[/link] acually you'll want to get the set up with micro servos if you get the tazz since it like micro servos

I know this plane only uses 3 channels but you need the mixing for this plane and you'll already have the radio you'll need to go glow powered. You'll also need a good 8-cell charger and at least 3 batteries to really enjoy the model

If you have access to a real model flying field then get a full 4 channel glow powered trainer with the radio mentioned above. Any trainer is great but get an instructor if you go this route.
