Use a neck strap to support your TX, that way you are not gripping your TX and your hands can relax. Makes a lot of difference when you are learning and get the shakes.
I second this! Neck straps definitely help.
Also, not sure that hot glue is the best glue for repairs. Might be ok for the super cub, but I would keep an eye on the glued area to make sure it doesn't come loose.
