Welcome to RCZ Marc.
As for hobbyshops, stay away from Distribution Aux Modeliste in Laval. Serge, the owner, is a pure-breed jackass.
I buy from WWW.NDHELI.COM based in the east end of Montreal. Great prices and awesome service. Nick sells helis, cars, trucks, and motorcycles. If he doesn't have something in stock, he can order it for you.
You thinking of starting with a nitro or electric powered RC? Onroad or offroad?
