I'd also agree with getting the ARF. It'll actually be cheaper than buying a kit with no tools. Also an ARF will fly way better than your first kit. First time builders make lots of mistakes (major ones like 2 left wings) and you'll find that your first kit built plane will be f'ugly and not a very efficient flyer. If you learn on an ARF that's built straight, then you'll have a better chance of not crashing the ugly, twisted, patched thing that you slaved over for 2 months.
