Just google " …
Just google "E-Flite F-15", search for a store next to your location.
If you are a beginner you should better take another plane, this would be too fast at the approach :-)
This plane costs approx. 700 Euro (950 US-dollar).
Accu charger, transmitter, flight simulator, second accu, tools,… cost approx. 600 Euro (800 US-Dollar).
Because I had accu, one motor and ESC and got the second motor and ESC with servos cheap at Ebay, I only payed approx. 350 Euro (470 US-Dollar) for the F-15.
