Okay, so after reading countlessly on these message boards, talking to members of a club im joining, and going to a very good R/C hobby shop, here is what i feel im going to end up getting.

I just want everyone's opinions if you dont mind.

Radio: Jr XP662 (6 channel)
Airplane: Sig LT-40 ARF
Engine: Thunder Tiger PRO-46 Ball Bearing R/C Airplane Engine

i think im gonna go with thunder tiger because it is what everyone in the club im joining uses. Is it a good engine? is it one that will last me a few planes?
Also, i felt like i better go with a great radio now, so i save myself some $$$.

I MAY go with a Sig LT-40 KIT, but im kinda of doubting that since:
1) ive never built a plane before
2) my time is limited these days =)

so the ARF looks like the goes for me, so at least ill get a little building experience from it.


So how does this plane sound? I do like the LT-40 because it is bigger then most trainers....which will help lots.
But then again, i live here in Ohio where it is COLD AND SNOWY! So i have till like april before i can even THINK about flying=)
but until then, im going to practice...practice...practice on my realflight g2 =)

And i know one thing, i have MANY MANY years to come in this hobby, as i am only 18 years old=)
I CANT WAIT!!! But then again, its good to wait so i get everything right=)
