If this is your 1st time flying,,Wrong type of plane to start with..
Any of the HK 4 ch 2.4 radios will be fine. Battery? what size and count.
Tips, Try something like a trainer..
Right after a spectacular crash, the pilot yelled out ''Channel 35 clear!

it was a "give away" from HK so I became curious about planes if you have a suggestion for a "beginner kit" (radio and a suitable plan)have worked with RC cars for quite some time so I have all the basic tools/skills at least for cars but but nothing about flying!
thanks in advance

thanks a lot! but is it possible to use another radio to this watched a youtube video about this aircraft and they said something about the radio is lacking some settings that made it more difficult to fly, and I have a~friend who switched his radio to a new DX7s and I could buy his "old" DX6i for a good price but I don't know if it's a good radio because he switched and selling it so cheap
And should I go with the Bixler(ARF)instead when some people are using 2200mah 3S + and complain that the esc is weak ?

I can do you a list of bits for the ARF if you like:

ESC (comes with connectors already attached):

RX (DSM2 for your mate's DX6i):
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__11965__OrangeRx_R610_Spektrum_DSM2_6Ch_2_4Ghz_Receiver_w_Sat_Port_.html

Satellite rx for above (optional, but much preferred to improve signal diversity):

Battery:

Bigger prop (6x4"):

or:

Hope that helps. With the bigger prop and ESC I'm told the Bixler really shifts.
