Default Semi-beginner with some questions...

Hello All,

Nice forums!

I want to get into electrics and am wondering where to start. To give some background, I flew glow planes a long time ago and probably don't remember much but I had an Eagle 2 with ailerons.

I already have an inexpensive 4-channel Futaba radiio system but realize that I'll probably need a new receiver and servos for a small park flyer.

Here's what I'm wondering. Should I start with something like a Slow Stick or Tiger Moth or should I get something with ailerons?

Also, what should I get as far as equipment (ie. receiver, servos, charger, battery packs)? I want to be sure that whatever I get can be used when I'm ready to upgrade without having to buy all new stuff.

Suggestions and advice are greatly appreciated!
