Ok, so I have been building up to start flying for a while now. My brother just bought a hobbyzone mini cub last week, and after taking that up a few times I really need to get my own.
I want a starter plane, not super basic, but hopefully something I can get spare parts for. I would love to get something 4ch, but I want to stay in the $100 range for my first plane.
I saw the bellanca decathalon at hobby lobby, and I do like the idea that I might be able to add aileron control later, but I wouldn't know how to do that. And it is a little more expensive than I was hoping.
I am not adverse to buying on ebay, so long as it's a known brand so I can get parts if need be.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for the help.
