I have a Paasche H series, and it does the job. Not over pricey either. However, if I had it to do over again, I probably would've went with a double action airbrush like the VL series. I've used both, and while double action is a bit harder to master, it definitely offers a higher level of control. Features that would come in handy for the finer details of painting an RC body.

I think it turned out pretty damned good
My first paint job was rattle can black.....
As with Sinastir, Mike does all my painting for me now... I don't have the talent for complicated paint jobs
