i was looking for electric. But, i have found the plane i am going to build. I have choosen the Model Aero AeroCat. it is relativly cheap at $49.95 and is will be perfect for me because it just lands on its belly. It should be pretty easy to repair with some CA and Carbon fiber for added strength. thanks for recomending the other planes though. now i must go to the aserocat forum to find out a good motor.
