The Hanger 9 Alpha is a good plane to start out but thats just my opinion. Most planes have big wingspans but most of the wings come off for transport. Even if you have a small apartment you can hang them from the wall or the celling. So its not that bad for storage. Electrics are all right but i would get a glow fueled plane. They sound better and looks better IMO

Good luck and make sure you get an instructor!!

P.s. Good luck on your pilots licenses. I would love to do that someday. But I am 14 and have no money so that will be out of the picture for a while!
