That is only because you have not looked, There is help everywhere and I beleve their is a wonderfull field and club right in your town. Check at the ama website club locator.
I primarily only teach and mentor in Glow so you need to decide whether or not you want to go electric or glow? If Electric I do very much like the Great planes Sensei. In Glow I only teach with my equipment for the most part and that consists of the OS .35AX powered Senior Kadet using the Aurora 9 buddy cord systems which has considerble advantages over most other (not all) buddy systems.
