Thanks for the feedback. I didn't really want to purchase a RTF plane but rather build it. As far as nitro vs electric, I am for now looking at electric. I have no proplem with gas but with a 10 and 7 year old (who will likely also want a turn), I think electric just gives me a little more comfort. Tried to find the BluBabe as suggested but couldn't. I may be dense. I will take a look at the others suggested later today.

Any thoughts on radio equipment? Not thinking I will go with spread spectrum just yet but I would like a good 72MHz that we can grow with.

Thanks again.
