R/C plane...for scale fun go aerobatic, extra, caps, sukoi, or edge. If you want slow scale fun Piper Cub kits are cool as most have pontoons you can swap for the wheels to fly off water. With Cubs you can also get a wing kit and build it up clipped wing to be more aerobatic and keep a full wing for lazy cruising. If you want to pose spend a whole gob of money on a jet with a turbine engine.

When I was into R/C plane I had both and aero plane and the cub too. Did not only the pontoon thing, but added and electric starter for the engine so I could restart on the pond, or as it turned out, spin the starter to bring it back to shore so I could mess with the engine to get it running. Was still pretty cool to set the plane on a pond, punch a button on the radio to start it, then taxi out and take off.
