Default RE: Where to start?

the trainer looks like what you need to get started you are still going to need some help flying it .
the ultra sport, no way, its too much for a beginner to start with,its a hot over powered low wing sport plane = trouble for a first plane, maybe a third plane.
some ebay advice if you don't already know it, watch your potential purchase closely if your interested, the ones I usually get my heart set on get snatched up from underneath unless you watch it like a hawk.
kind of over the ebay deal mainly because I like a product guarantee the major retailers offer pretty good deals and if there is any damage in shipping or in some cases flight failure (with a instructor present) they will replace the plane, for me it was worth the little extr***** on the other hand 80$ is pretty cheap for a set up.
