Glow-powered aircraft can be flown in more wind than most electric aircraft. Their larger size and heavy weight require more space to fly than a typical electric plane, but they have better control authority than most electric trainer aircraft.

I'd highly recommend a Thunder Tiger trainer super combo of your choice to start out with. Thunder Tiger offers a variety of glow trainers from the diminutive Dragonfly .15 to the 73" wingspan Tiger Trainer .60 in a "Super Combo" package with a high quality Thunder Tiger glow engine and a Hitec radio system.
