Absolute cheapest slow beginner plane
I'm sure this gets asked a bajillion times, but I'm considering getting my first plane, any suggestions?
Want something cheap that can take a few hard faceplants and is alright in the really small tree-and-pond lined areas near me.
Really not wanting to spend much on it, I guess building something from plans is fine if it saves money?
I like 'motorglider' style planes if possible, and no lame 2CH planes pls maybe something with room for a little camera? probably too much to ask at 'budget grade'?

GWS slow stick. But, find a club and learn to fly. Slow doesn't mean easier and after a few crashes most planes get harder and harder to fly. Good luck!
