Default RE: Stumped on first plane

If you have that much space with no fences or structures in it, then you'll have enough space. Start by learning to taxi, then make little powered hops. Focus on developing a feel for the minimum flying speed and stall characteristics, and take the time to get it flying straight with your hands off the controller. When you feel in control of those, do a circuit or two and do q landing just like the hops.
