Default RE: beginner plane

Gents - this is kind of a dream stealer after reading your miserable but truthful replies. I am based in Papua New Guinea and have no means of joining a RC club here since they are non-existance, nor have RC modellers around. I mess around with R/C buggies and C/L planes though - build and fly them myself. I have now obtained a 4 channel radio and am tempted to build a R/C plane to learn fly myself. I have lots of R/C glo engines in my collection. Surely, someone could recommend me a simple plane to start flying with? Should I start off with 3 channels or 4 channels? My only experience is an hr with a R/C plane flyer a few months ago when visiting Australia and he was teaching me how to turn the plane with ailerons + slight elevator up, but never turn with rudder! I feel that I need to go out to the field and try something out. Can someone help out with any positive experience please?

Thanks
Daniel
