You know... I don't think I have a picture of the plane.  Go figure.  Here's one from the website I bought it from.  Looks just like it.

Wingspan is 44 inches.  Aileron, rudder and elevators.  I'm waiting for some lights to be delivered, then it will have position lights, a beacon, a strobe and landing lights. 

For a complete beginner, I would highly recommend getting something like a Super Cub first.

I started with this one and crashed it uncountable times.  It's sturdy and simple and easy and cheap to fix.  Once you get out of the "I crash my RC plane at least once every time I fly it" phase, you can move up to something like the T-28.

The T-28 flies like a dream.  Stable, powerful, and relatively agile.  If you have some experience, this would be a great plane to upgrade to. 

I totally hear you.  I HATE flying with other people watching.  Sometimes I go into the Metro Parks early in the morning or evening and fly there.  Otherwise there aren't many other options.  Sometimes I drive just far south until I hit fields and forests which mostly don't belong to anyone.  There are a few clubs which have fields in the area, but again, then you are under the scrutiny of everyone else.  And once you have landed, you get a lot of tips and pointers that you really couldn't care less about.
If you get one again, let me know, I'll go fly 'em somewhere with you.  And I promise I won't laugh when you crash yours if you promise not to laugh when mine hits the ground!
