Practice might help a little, but PERFECT PRACTICE is the KEY.

Just make sure you know what to and how to practice.

Thay are most definetly correct though it takes a lot of flying.

Another important factor is to have the correct attitude, you must fly outside your envelope and take chances. Make sure you are safe but you have to fly at the seat of your pants. I have made drastic improvement in not that long of time frame only because I take risks and am not afraid to crash. All of that worry over crashing is a waste, I lost only my Magic 3d thus far and that was only because i was flying at a new field and while in a flat spin I didn't realize there were 40ft tall trees awaiting. All that worry is a waste!!!!
