The combination that rcluver suggested is a good one. One of my biggest complaints of the Nexstar is that it is very overpriced IMO and has features you actually don't want to have. Hopefully you have or will get some instruction with this plane and should be on a buddy box for at least a few flights. No matter what nitro plane you get, it will fly a lot different than your electric. PLEASE don't take that suggestion lightly. Stay away from wood props too, they simply break too easy.
