Hi, I guess you better learn to fly the EPP foamy glider first as it is generally more durable in case of crashes. The best way to learn flying is to go to the flying site during weekend, ask some of our fellow rc pilots to give you a brief introduction and let you have a try before deciding what foamy model you need to acquire. HKRCSS has a traning program and will have experience pilots to teach new comers, please have a look
