those 2 planes do fly and are supposedly easy to fly. I am not sure since i have not flown one myself but have seen them fly on a video i found in the Internet. I know they sell many extra parts such as wings tails and pretty much anything you need to fix them when you do crash.

I would recommend something like Plane Addicted posted though since it is more a conventional type plane. Planes like these will be very forgiving and get you started into RC planes if you do decide to later go on with gas. Electric planes are nice to fly but your time in the air is limited. As for gas they last a bit longer and the power does not die out such as the electrics do. You just refuel and go again.

I have a eclectic sailplane myself and it is a very fun plane to fly. One good thing about a sailplane you do not have to use the motor to fly the entire time. You can cut it of and glide for a good while then throttle again and start climbing again.
