Okay, silly questions, can you fly model planes? What sort of flying do you want to do? Scale, aerobatic, hotliner? Where are you based? Gives us and idea of your needs.

3 models which are suited to someone who can fly, even sort of and will give you the chance to fly some mild aerobatics, the Funray is the most advanced of the lot and would only suggest if you can already fly planes.
Hope this helps

Just wondering if it might be best to 'borrow' a glider Andrew and see how you get on with flying fixed wing. (Perhaps with buddy box if you'd prefer.) That would enable you to asses your present flying abilities and decide what to buy for yourself.
Where abouts are you?

Hi All,
Thanks for your replies, some more info...
No previous flights with fixed wing, only sim time.
Am interested in scale/acro, retractable edf acrobatic models in particular. The ASW kit was an impulse buy and was going to purchase, or use an FMS Fox 3m to learn with until it was ready.
I live in Cambridge, UK which is flat with a few small hills. Avg wind speed 11mph mostly from the west per annum.
Thanks again Andrew.

Hi Andrew,
If you want an elegant and aerobatic sailplane a 3m Alpina might fit the bill.
I think they are still available and in an electric version. The entire Alpina range has always been good kits and good fliers though probably more so when supplied by Multiplex.
