Gday everyone ![Smile Smile](https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/images/smilies2/smile.gif)
Names Kev and I'm a newbie to the hobby as well as the site/forums.
I have enjoyed flying the cheap $25 planes and choppers that i got from paddys markets a few years ago. You know the ones that recharge from the remote? lols, had good fun with them, until my cousins lost my plane up a tree, and my cat destroyed the chopper, getting his satisfying revenge lol
I have absolutely no idea what I should buy, but being on a budget, the first place i looked was ebay. The Skyartec Cessna 182 looks like a popular model, and is the one i had my eye on. The package I saw came with some flight sim software which I think will come in handy.
Should I get one? And if not, why, and what other models should I look at? And how much should I pay? Sorry for the annoying questions lol, but I am greener than a leprechaun on saint paddys day![Smile Smile](https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/images/smilies2/smile.gif)
Cash is a little tight at the moment, so for anything $200 and up I'll probably need to do something like layby, if you guys no any good places I can deal with either online or in Sydneys south west it would be really helpful.
Any feedback, comments and suggestions would really be appreciated![Smile Smile](https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/images/smilies2/smile.gif)
Anyways, apologies for the long post, lol, and its a pleasure to meet all of you!
Now I'm off to explore the forums for info![Smile Smile](https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/images/smilies2/smile.gif)
Cheers
