Default Is this a good beginner plane?

I am looking for a good beginner plane, and I came across this one and I wanted to know if it was a good plane?

Looks like a pretty good deal to me if you want to fly electrics.

Very good plane, I've flown it. A little pricey compared to some other begginer electrics, but it does have a better radio system and other components that are more suited to use later in a second plane. If money's not a problem and you have an instructor to help you get started it would be a good choice. Otherwise I usually reccomend the hobbyzone Super Cub for beginners.

Great choice. I've seen a lot of new people wanting a Jet or Warbird for their first plane ( I know... I was once one of them and it almost cost me, thank goodness I listened to the people in my club.) I give you credit for making the right choice and doing it right.
