Cars
I've been through a number of R/C cars, trucks and buggies over the years. It started back in the early 80's with a Tamiya Grasshopper, since then I've had on-road, off-road, electric and nitro. Now, I've scaled down a bit and am having fun with an Associated RC18T (1/18 scale 4wd truck).
Planes
Planes can be intimidating and hard to fly.. that's why I started with the Trick R/C Zagi 400X. It's basically a foam wing, with a pusher propellor.
Helicopter
I picked up an E-Flite Blade CX-2 a little while ago. It's got counter-rotating blades, which help keep it more stable - making it a great heli to learn with. However, that doesn't mean it's hard to crash!
