I was thinking of getting the Air Hogs Hawk Eye Blue Sky from target but Im not sure if I should since I would only use the video once. I Wouldn't, personally, upload tons of flights with it but I do love its style and flying.
But has anyone had experience with the F-14 tomcat or jet set? Are they great as well ad the A-10 Warthog? Please answer! Thank you all!

Truthfully, none of those are good choices for a first plane. Don't take my word for it though. If you do a search for Air Hogs on RCU you'll see the stories. A much better first plane choice is the Hobbyzone Super Cub. They make a mini-version which is close to the price of the plane you're looking at, and a standard version which costs more but tolerates the wind better. Either way though, it's in your best interest to get some help from an experienced flyer, especially for your first experience. Even if you're driven RC cars before, there is still a lot about airplane setup and piloting skills that you'll have to learn.

I seemed to like this plane. http://www.amazon.com/Hobbyzone-Cham...568&sr=1-2

That's similar to the super cub. Just understand though that it's made to fly indoors, which means you'll have to wait until you have a very calm day to take it outside and fly it.

I bought this one. It's rather elegant in design but doesn't tolerate wind, basically an indoor plane/totally calm day.
Mine was nose light so I added a paper clip lol.
