Default RE: Fast 3 or Flying fish?

Well, Garavi, best of luck with that. It is very difficult to offer help for someone in your situation, location, and so on. The only thing you can do is pick the one that is going to be the easiest to learn on, and if it were me, I would choose the Flying Fish. It looks more like a glider than the other one, and that can get you out of a lot of trouble once you get it in the air.

Just remember battery time, and time each flight. If you lose the battery in flight, you lost everything (RC control included). So, time the flights and keep it simple. Do orbits (circles) both right and left, then ovals, then left rectangles, right rectangles, then figure eights, both left and right, and because you are flying alone (without an instructor), try to gently come in for landings.

Good luck.
