I think that for $20 you cant really go wrong. Seems like a good deal, but you get what you pay for. Make sure you dont judge the hobby on that one plane, when you are ready move up to something a little bit bigger. Good luck....

I would say that you could get something slightly more than a trainer as your next plane. Just get an instructor to help you fly the next one at first.

The plane you got is probably fun for fooling about only. It will never be like the 'real' thing. Get a trainer ARF and tutor. You will see how much the difference is between the 'toy' and the ARF.
The toy you have will not handle like a 40 sized trainer for sure. The flying characteristics are very different. Being smaller its twitchy and will not fly as precise as you 55" wing span trainer. Have fun with the 'toy' by all means but get a proper plane to learn to fly properly.

I'm just saying, the only use I found for my trainer was to learn basic flying (like what the plane looks like in the sky etc...). Get something a bit quicker, maybe a cub or cessna 182. Just get someone to help you fly it. If you dont have any help, get a trainer.
