Hello Everyone;

Looking to get an electic plane...

...I was into R/C Planes (Nitro) years ago, and consider my self an advanced beginner (intermediate), so I'm not looking for a beginner plane, but somewhere between beginner and intermediate. My wife gave me a buget of around $400. What can I get with that price range? I've got some on the basic field equiptment - chagers (lipo/nimh/nicad), etc., so I'm looking for a plane (Kit, ARF, don't care), radio system, motor (brushless?), ESC, batterypack (lipo?). Does getting a good plane up and running with that price range doable? I'd like for the plane to be 4-channel, so I can get into some 3D flight later on.

Can some of you give me some good ideas on a good setup for the money?

Thanks!
Ernie
