I have a Hobbico Electristar in excellent condition except for scuffs on both wingtips. Everything needed to fly including 6 battery packs and charger ...will let go for $300 firm. No assembly needed. You can go right to the field. PM me if interested.

Hobby Zone Super Cub for $159.99. Realistic looking Durable plane. The batteries are inexpensive so buying extras let you keep flying while the other batteries recharge.
I am learning on the Super Cub now. See the Super Cub thread in the Electric/Park Flyer thread.

I think a Cessna 182 is also available that is a touch smaller but might be 4-Channel.

Foam planes are easy and cheap to fix should you have a problem...however they are super light and can only really be flown on very calm days.

so those ones specified above are foam ones? when you say 4 channel you mean it has tail rudder, wing rudder, motor and what other control?
