Sig LT 40 with an OS46FX. Build only if you have an experienced builder to help you, otherwise get the ARF. The ARF will be cheaper in the long run. Hitec Flash 5 for the radio (will allow you to grow) and the 46fx will allow for plenty of "Get out of trouble power". These will also allow you to grow into other planes when you are ready. The LT40 has a 73" wing span providing a more stable flyer, yet with the 46fx and dual rates will do most begining aerobatics. I own 3 different trainers and the LT40 is one of the best for beginers. Another excellent kit is the Telemaster 40.
