Default First Plane?

Hi all,

I am thinking off starting in this hobby as it always been a childhood dream of mine to fly RC Planes and Helicopters.
I have been flying a Honeybee King II helicopter for about 3 months and I think it`s time for my first airplane.

I suppose it`s an old question but what plane to start with?

I have radio, rx, sevos, li-po`s etc so I`m thinking of a ARTF kit with brushless motor.
From what I can gather the norm for newbies is a high winged Cessna/Piper type with a wingspan of about 40 to 50 inches. I realise the norm is for 3 channels but with some heli experience behind me I think I`ll try with 4.

So, any suggestions/corrections or advice is more than welcome.

Thanks everyone,
ants.
