This thread is very timely....I went out today for the first time ever on a buddy box, and I was the teacher! I had my dad and brother who are here visiting out for fun. Up high it was very easy and low stress to do this with 2 complete novice's. I messed it up when I had my son, (who has been flying for about a year) landing the plane. I thought he had it, he thought I was going to land it. So we both watched the crash from a spectator view. The lesson? As long as you and the student are communicating, instructing is easy. I guess after I repair the plane we will try it again.
