RE: would this be too advanced for a first time flyer?
years ago i had a friend who thought fling was e z,,, hell you just got in an awaay you went!!,,,,i finally talked him into going up for an hours instruction. he went up in a citabria,,,great airplane an e z to fly and land. when he got back,,,i never saw anybody so soaked with swet,,hehe,,,,he never talked about how "easy" it was to fly. hehe,,,keep it close to the ground an pratice landings and take offs ???? hell,,,you better buy 20 planes,,,,you will need them ,,,i would like to see how fast you can ball them up. im a "real" pilot who has owned an flown a 450 stearman which i took all mt training and then a howard dga-15p and i needed an instructor wwith the buddy box for quite a number of flying before i felt ready to solo. i did this with a 1/4 scale balsa usa cub that i built with flaps and 3 inches dihedrel to make it more stable. what a grate trainer . good luck doing it your self,,,,and i learned at a club and never had a bunch of people crowding aronud.,,,i did crash the big cub one time and had the fun of building it all over again,,,,hehe
