Salut!

Well I'm a real beginner. My first plane came yesterday as a gift from my wife. Its a Spitfire from VMAR, semi scale. I have no experience with model aircraft, but since my childhood I'm used to planes and flight simulators on PC.
It came already with a motor, brand OS, LA 46.

Now I will need to buy a RC and of course mount the bird... The big deal is that I'm from Brazil and nowadays living in France so I need a radio that works in Brazil. I read something about that the frequency needs to be 72MHz in Brazil. Any suggestions?

I found a lot of complains about VMAR ARF quality in this forum, but I saw that some people are still satisfied with theirs models from this brand. Well that was a gift and with very good intentions so i will keep my Vmar Spit...
I know that I will need an instructor to put this bird on air, and Im afraid that this is not a very good plane to begin... Anyway I think I will try. Do you think is possible to learn with a warbird?


Tx!

Merry Christmas and Happy 2003!
