Are you looking for "ready to fly" planes? "Ready to fly" meaning that it comes with plane, transmitter, battery, etc. Do you have your own transmitter and batteries?

For a beginner, I'd recommend something like the Bixler 3. It has a great glide, pusher motor, and it looks good, too. Here is a link for the Bixler 3, at hobbyking.com, in the AUS warehouse:

HobbyKingâ„¢ Bix3 Trainer/FPV EPO 1550mm (PNF) (AU Warehouse)

You might also have a look at these:

HobbyKing® ™ Mini Breeze Glider EPO 900mm (Plug and Fly) (AU Warehouse)


Or any of the planes on this page:

Planes & Parts>Beginner/Trainer

Pusher style planes, from any distributor are great for beginners because the motor and prop aren't on the nose to get damaged in crashes....and as a beginner, crashes are going to happen.

I hope this helps.

I don't want to pour cold water on anyone's ambitions, but EDF jet models really aren't suitable for beginners. You would be much better starting off with a 'normal' propeller driven trainer type model and graduate to jet models later down the road once you have plenty of experience. Trying to fly an EDF jet as a first model is guaranteed to be a very frustrating and expensive way to learn.

I have to agree with Smoggie about this. EDF's aren't just a "throw and fly" plane for beginners. Prop drive planes are much better to start with....then you can graduate yourself to EDF's later on.
