Hello Kyle; I have a parkzone Typhoon, and I would reccomend it if you have a bit of flying experience. It's tough, and durable, but it's not very easy to look good on it. I still can't do a decent knife edge, and it isn't easy to hover vertically, but it does such a beautiful invertied flat spin. It'll keep you entertained until you out grow it.

I also have a parkflyers Geebee, a much more "3D" capable plane. $139. complete with transmitter and lipos. It's even more fun to fly, and will do things that I can't describe. If you go with the Geebee, check it over carefully before you fly it. I found a few problems that needed attention before flying.

I found out that if it's windy enough to blow the plane off the table, then it's too windy to fly either of these planes.
