Go to the field. Do not buy anything. Ask a lot of questions. Do this for four weekends straight. Right now you need to acquire as much knowledge as possible. Remember the store is in the business to sell stuff. You will waste more money that way before you know it. Most fields will be glad to set up a buddy box and let you try your thumbs at flying. Do not pay anyone at the field if they ask for money go to this web site and search for another field close to you. www.modelaircraft.org also join this organization. The real truth about the start up cost of this hobby will be around $500.00 to start. Also check out these web sites www.horizonhobby.com and www.towerhobbies.com

I am not trying to scare you off but I feel a person should hear what they need to know not what they want to hear.
