GWS Pico Sticks.
I think i'm going to get that one. Sence it's only 2ch can I use a pistol grip radio or would that be to hard to fly?

Pico Sticks are 3 channel, throttle, rudder and elevator. A pistol grip radio is for cars so you will need to get a radio for planes. I wouldn't go less than this.

This is a good starter plane and if you follow the suggestions, they will tell you what ESC, servos, batteries, etc you will need. And since you run cars, I assume you allready have a charger.

And yes, they will be hard to fly for a new guy. I'm a big beliver in learning with a sim first.
