You won't need the Sullivan adapter. The starter will come with one in it, so you don't need to buy an extra one. Also, don't buy wooden props. New pilots and wooden props DO NOT mix well. The first time you touch the prop to the ground it's going to shatter and need replaced. I recommend that all newer pilots use Master Airscrew as they can take a bit more of a beating and still work. Also, never buy just one prop. That's a sure fire jinx to breaking a prop, not having a spare. I always buy 2 at a time, especially for newer pilots
If you can I would recommend buying your fuel locally. It's going to be much more expensive if you buy it from Tower.

Trust me... once you get a taste of flying it definitely won't be your last. Just the one of hundreds.

I am relative new to flying, but I have found that charging the xmtr and RX batteries overnight with a wall wart, doe's the trick.
Another atvanatge is to install a Volt watch meter. It tells you battery status, but that all. You need to chek the actual battery charge capicity with a Sentry, which put's a small load on the rx battery. It will tell you go or no go.
Just my 2C's worth.

I first started with the 600 ma/h receiver battery's and always worried about the voltage. My second plane I needed to buy a battery (first battery came with the radio), and went to my LHS. Much to my surprise I could buy a receiver battery that was 2700 ma/h. After flying the new plane for 5 tanks and still having green on the voltwatch I decided big battery's from now on. I replaced the 600 ma/h battery with another 2700 ma/h and have not looked back. My third plane also received a 2700 ma/h battery and I bought a 2200 ma/h battery for my 7c.
I can take all three planes to the field and have quite a few flights before running out of battery. Yes it does weight more but I use it to balance my planes and I haven't added lead yet.
