What sim do you have?

Anyways, if you want to go the simple way, without tons of crashes, then don't go with a 3D capable plane just yet. Get an Aerobird Challenger or something similar as it is durable, 3ch, rtf, and a really good flyer. You might (and probably will) regret going from something so simple as an aeroace to a 4ch 3d plane.
