The motor will last for a while and the batteries are good for now. Just charge them at the right rate and they will last longer. Once you get the hang of it, you can upgrade to a 8 or 9 cell maybe even LIPO batteries. Everything comes with the plane so, you will not have anything else to buy. (just spare parts)
