I have about a year experience with a Hobbico Hobbistar 60, (now crashed) and just a few flights under my belt with my Fun 51 (with a buddy box, too chicken!) I just moved near a large park and would love to get some stick time on an electric. I want to use my Airtronics computer radio and I want to definately have ailerons. I was looking at the Decathlon by wattage, (i really like a balsa plane) and also looked at the mad max... but, seems so flimsy and stuff though, I have no experience with foam, and I guess the only ones I've seen are the GWS Beaver that some guys practice with at my club. They just seem kinda cheesy to me, recomendations, anyone?

If you don't like foam and want to build good kits, try

I fly a slowstick right now, but i plane on getting my next plane from them. good luck, i love park flyers 'cause they're so convienent. the flying field is just down the street!

Forgot to mention, time dictates that I need an ARF!
Sorry!

(But I have checked Mountainmodels, NICE STUFF!)

I fly almost all foam planes since they are so much easier to repair. If you want a performance plane the GWS Formosa seems to be a good choice and for a more relaxed flight I like the GWS Tiger Moth 400. I agreee with the Beaver looking a little cheesy but most of the GWS planes are great flying planes for the price.

I bought a Thawk from readytoflyfun.com, its an AWSOME first time flyer plane. I learned off that very easily, and its a very forgiving plane on crashes. It doesnt cost alot, and comes with all the stuff you need. GO to there site and check out the vids or go to my site mattsrcworld.f2g.net and look at some.
