Gday everyone
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
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
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
Cheers
Kev
