Hi Ren,
Using an Ambroid mix will help prepare you for ligher planes, but you can build a LPP to weight using thick CA. It's a little faster.
I put a little puddle of CA on a piece of wax paper and dip just the face of the part I'm gluing into it.
LPP's are less demanding as far as wood selection and gluing technique. Learn along the way, but don't fret so much that you never get your plane in the air and start having fun :)
BTW - are you going to participate in the LPP Pro/Am at USIC this year?
