If you really want electric

(call tower and tell them you would rather have the 6 exas radio and see what deal you can make)
Personally I would go with a 40 size glow trainer.
Intermediate on a sim is much different than on the real thing.
IMO you should absolutely go with a trainer type plane, especially if you are learning by yourself.
(I recommend getting with a local club and let a qualified instructor train you)
