Replying late but was going to also mention the boom. They are nice planes but really not the easiest to learn on. They seem to really torque roll from the motor and it maked it difficult to execute left turns. If you want a really enjoyable experience, go with what many other suggested. The Super Cub. I taught my self to fly on it and still enjoy flying it. What ever you do don't get discouraged and keep on flying. The only question on the phantom is not if the boom will break, but when. Mine snapped on a decent landing when I flaired a little much and it touched tail first.
