Thanks for the reply bigedmustafa, are there any other models that i could have a look on the uk model shops for? ive had a look on the list here and it wasnt clear what were electric and not.

are the parkzone planes any good for learners?[link=http://www.abcmodelsport.net/c38267/Parkzone-Ready-to-Fly-Radio-Controlled-Planes.html]here[/link] ill be teaching myself as there isnt anywhere local to learn, im pretty good at picking things like this up and i have a cheap £10 plane that im currently modifying befor i set flight seriously.

Alex.
