That all depends on what model it is for example a slow stick or a slo-v plane is so easy to fly that after a few flights you should have the hang of it, a 3d capable helicopter will take for ever to learn to fly and can be very, very frustrating, but a coaxial helicopter is probably easier to fly then the slow stick when flown indoors, I would have to say in general a full 4ch heli is harder then a 4ch plane though but some would argue that its the other way round. What i will say is that I have been learning to fly a slo-v (got it really, really cheap) and although its not perfect although it could be with a battery upgrade, it does fly and it flies so slowly and stable that after a couple, yes two flights I could take it up to height fly round do nice turns a loop and then come in for a nice landing. However I won't recommend it as a beginner plane unless you live somewhere with no wind because otherwise you will be grounded all the time waiting for the wind to drop. The easy star and super cub can handle much more wind although at first I would not fly it in the wind, the pros and cons are the easystar is more or less indestructable flies very stable and when you get confident can be turned into a mild sport aerobatic plane, the super cub has the advantage that it can land and take off from the ground, I will also add though that the Hobbyzone supplied electronics are not very good with the easystar you can fit you own electronics. If you don't have a nice smooth field get the easystar if you want to learn landings and take off get the super cub.
