Hi. I have flown a 2 channel toy class plane for a bit. I'm looking to buy an RTF 4 channel plane. If it comes with a 4ch transmitter that's best really. I've narrowed down my choices to the following according to my very limited budget -

3ch

http://www.rcbazaar.com/products/1293-spad-sxii-rtf.aspx

4ch

While i know that 3 channel planes are easier to learn with, the 4ch ones come with 4ch radios, which means i wont have to upgrade later. Please advise as to which is the best choice for a beginner. Thanks.

4 ch mini stunt plane is not for beginners, too small and will be hard to control

same for SPAD.  I have flown this small planes.  beginners can't handle them.

Try the slow stick and hobbysea.com

Or, try Hobbyzone Champ



Or HobbyKing J3 Cub

theleabres, i liked the slow stick but it's way too expensive. Apart from the plane itself, i would need to buy a transmitter, an esc and a battery. I cannot afford that much. My budget is 7000 max.

Also, HobbyZone and HobbyKing are both US sites aren't they? How would I buy that stuff in India?

they ship overseas.  place the item in your cart and check the shipping cost.
