You could probably fit a camera into the cockpit on this plane -- as its fairly large. I've got some friends who've mounted cameras on planes -- but not in the cockpit. The cockpit view would be cool

I've always wanted to get into RC planes, I live right next to an old airfield, so I've got the perfect location. I'm just really not sure I have the money, and maybe not the time either depending how long you need to sink into it.

Just breaking into it doesn't have to be all that expensive. Most people are tempted to run out and get a warbird or other low wing type of plane because they look cool -- but are a poor choice to learn on. You can get a Hobbyzone Super Cub for about $150 -- that comes with everything you need to fly right out of the box. Its how I learned -- then I went and got a Parkzone FW 190 when I was comfortable. Once you've stuck your first landing -- you will be hooked. I've got lots of RC toys for the ground, electric and Nitro, but nothing compares to low fly-bys with a warbird.
