I like the art of doing it from the ground up

If you are new to 1/4 scale, and it sounds like your are, that is not a good plane to start with. Pick up a Sig Seniorita kit and build that first. It will help you to develop both the building and flying skills you will need before considering a Staggerwing. Also, go to your local hobby shop and find out who the local R/C guys are and see about joining thier club - they will most likely provide you with a lot of help.

Swanny is right; you need to get yourself to a hobby shop that specializes in RC aircraft, or find the local RC boys.
If you do not have these in your area, try web searching on "Hi-Flight RC" or "Great Planes" as a start. Use their contact links to try and find help.
Good luck,
Bruce
