I know basically nothing about rc airplanes. My son has been bugging me to get him one. So that is why I am here to get some advice.

What should we be looking at for a trainer? Can we do this for $200 or less?
I am assuming electric/battery powered at this stage?

I know they have a park with a little runway not to far from where I work.

Any advice one what to buy him would be great. I am looking for someone in the area that might help him and me get started.

Thanks for any help
