Default Exactly how much does a plane cost?

Thanks for the layout guys,
however like some of u said my parents will have some of these. which is definentialy true i can name like 20 things on macairs list that my parents could give me.

Basically my dad has given me a $300-$500 budget to buy this thing hope thats enough. The radio macairs suggested said $249 radio i saw 4 channel radio fm for $160(canadian). Macair u didnt say if urs was USD or CND$. also most suggested things like tables or screwdrivers tools. ive got all that stuff(i think) and i can get pencils/rulers from school.

im not undergoing this hobby but im not trying to get total luxury(as crashem stated) in this hobby. Like ur enigine and other tools
as a beginner i dont think ill need al those tools. Im only going for a 50"-60" plane that can fly and do maybe two "tricks" (roll and flip). I really dont need a 6 channel radio( i dont need retractable wheels etc).

How much is fuel for like a 4 galleon bottle (should last me a while right?)

thanks alot for all the lists im going shoppin on soon so ill probably ask the dealer whats needed and whats a luxury.

PS im going with a kit not an arf
