Just get a ready to fly (rtf)
You can get a flyzone albatross for like $80 ....
I wouldn't start with a 4channel, I'd start with a three channel (throttle, elevator, rudder)
The flyzone planes might be your best bet.
Or a parkzone night vapor will fly the slowest but it's $130, it's a great slow flyer though....
No lighters guys! Didn't your parents ever tell you don't play with fire? Use a hair dryer for the blades!
