lol thanks, just curious how cheap or how expensive can a single plane run? I understand im probably going to end up spedning a few hundred bucks, but im only 18 and I do work full time, but of course we all have bills to pay, SOOoo, Just curious how this is going to effect my wallet?
If your budget is a few hundred bucks, your best options are electrics, careful selection and shopping can get you a decent setup, or to buy a second hand glow trainer setup. It's quite common for someone to try flying and decide they don't like it. Some people sell their stuff immediately, others hold on to it for a year or two and then sell it. Quite often they contact the person who trained them to get help selling it. If you get in touch with the local club and let them know you are interested, but have a limited budget, they may be able to help you find something.
