I need a cheap rc system (Rc plane)

Yea the foam plane thing didn't work, so I need a circuit with a transmitter, for cheap. I can go buy a battery but the transmitter must come with the circuit because cheap toy transmitters only control the toy itself, so right now I'm thinking of buying a cheap 2ch rc helicopter and taking it apart, and giving it a powerful new battery. I don't have metal rods that push tails so no servos for now, and I can't buy stuff from Amazon because shipping costs a lot (lazada and shopee, and banggood are OK for me)

You sound like a good hobbyist to me. Just that you either need time to get more money or don't have it right now to buy the necessary materials. Do you like only model airplanes? It sounds like it will take some time for you to order this by parts.

I like other stuff too, just I sorta have them already. I have a drone (DJI Tello), a heli (Eachine e119), but no plane yet. I'm thinking about a JJRC w01-j3 or some XK jet that I forgot the name of, and I have some foam so I think I can just buy some circuits and transmitters and motors and build that foam cuz I tried using rc car parts and that isn't working. And also, not all transmitters work with all circuits. Would have been much easier that way, because all of the cheap transmitters I have are all 2.4ghz, 2ch, and they don't work on the other rc cars.

This might work

get an ft ez 2ch its just 35$ trust me I'm in India minecame and its awesome and I suggest getting an extra set of 55mm propsfor coreless motor from amazon or somewhereas they break at least for me ereletivily easily wait time was 1 month but wasworth the wait and I live in india

Does it need soldering? Is the thing the reciever or the circuit itself? Looks like the reciever, IDK. I can't solder.

It is the transmitter and receiver and a simulator.
All you need to do is plug the servos and esc's into the receiver

About 2000 baht or uh 60 dollars.
Also I don't know how to use the system with ESCs and the reciever because I don't know which ones are compatible so I usually try to find ones where its just 1 circuit and I have to find a battery with a socket.

its only a receiver aka receiver plus esc plus and battery socket
comes with extra props prop remover transmitter which need s 3 aa battery of 300mah comes with it even charger and suggest getting few extra sets of 55mm props for coreless mtor from amazon or some where no soldering needed at all but suggest putting a little hot glue on top of where the battery socket is connected to the PCB so it doesn't break as that happened to me

i know this is off topic but if you dont know escs and receivers work together watch this.

I just dont get this. do You want to build your own ft style plane, or do you want to get something that is ready to fly out of the box. cause there is this: https://www.banggood.com/SonicModel...-p-1495321.html?cur_warehouse=CN&rmmds=search and all you need to do is add a transmitter and receiver, like this: https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy...D=74367&indexName=hbk_live_products_analytics That should all fit in your budget. not the highest quality stuff like spektrum or radiomaster, but it works. all you need to do after that is to get some foam and start building!
