The best plane I can reccomend depending on what you like are the e-flight cessna 182 a great looking plane I used the 370 inrunner brushless with the gear redution unit it comes with It flys awsome at full throttle it really scoots and it still slows down nicely for landings or check out the GWS Corsair I think it flys the best out of their warbirds and if you spend a little time with some paind you can make a good looking bird. The other option is a flight sim you can the $200 is a big initial purchase but it pays for itself very quickly every time you hit the reset button figue it saved you atleast $50 Good Look and welcome back to the hobby
