I would not recommend trying to fly this bugger without any RC plane experience, heck, I've been flying for 4 years and I can't even fly my 1:7 FW190D9 properly...

That ME109 would be great if they could have managed to squeeze retracts in at that price, although presumably you could just not fit them and belly land it.

To be honest there's any number of parkflyer models that are better than the ParkZone range, not that they are in any way bad models it's just that their main selling point is convenience. You can buy one and be flying it as soon as the battery is charged, others require more assembly and for other parts to be purchased separately.

Alfa Model for example:

these planes are incredibly easy to fly

Not that easy, Danny is right, these aren't in any way ideal for beginners. You might get away with it you've had lots of practice with a good RC flight sim, but a better starting point from the same range would be the Super Cub. 99% of beginners would be taking one of the warbird types home in a bin bag after their first go.
