I am suggesting you to buy a Hobbico Avistar 40 or Hobbistar 60 trainer.
If you have low badget go with the Avistar and buy a cheap but dependable OS 46 LA.
Or if you want something more stable go with the Hobbistar 60 trainer and install an OS 65LA in it.
Also if you want more power and " speed " which is not advised to a newcomer,you can buy the OS 61 FX engine.
Of course there are other engine manufacturers that offer there engines at extremely low prices such GMS (Chinese one),
but i haven't ( and won't plan to buy one ) saw one of them working so i cannot suggest them.
Quality between engine manufacturers is not the subject of the thread,i am just suggesting OS engines,because they have everything a newcomer wants:
1) performance
2) reliability
3) dependability
So,here is a link to above trainers!
Compare these airplanes with other suggestions of RCU members.
