You don't have to spend a fortune to get started with a high quality glow trainer and all of the field equipment and accessories that you'll need to fly it. This Easy Trainer Super Combo w/ free Side Kick is the best value for a glow powered trainer available on the market. If anybody knows of a better deal for getting started in glow planes, I'd love to hear about it!
