great (and sometimes not so great) words of knowledge:
I hate to disappoint you, however, the ME-163 is DEFINITELY NOT FOR
BEGINNERS. It is a sharp looking plane, but the handling is well above
what a newbie (or many experienced flyers) can fly. Not to mention, you
have not added in the complexity of a turbine or ducted fan yet either.
I know you really don't want to hear this, but hear it is anyway. Find
a club. The club will provide an instructor. Learn to fly a propellor
driven plane first. Advance through several other planes, each faster
and more maneuverable than the one before. When you can SAFELY FLY AND
CONTROL a plane, CONSISTENTLY, at speeds in excess of 70 mph, then you
MAY be ready to fly your ME-163.
You wouldn't put someone who has never driven a car behind the wheel of
a 500+ horsepower Indy 500 race car and tell them to go and learn to
drive. It is the same with this plane.

thanks for the information and the advice actually what i want to begin
with is the building stage, i have a lot of experience when it comes down to
the building or making of such items but not a rc plane.

This is a joke, right? Otherwise I would recommend a turbine-powered
Space Shuttle to adequately challenge your psyche. Bon chance!
