I taught my self to fly with an E-Flight apprentice. I took it out of the box assembled charged and flew. Landed with no issues<div>I had many good flights with few real errors, no major crashes. I moved to a sig trainer with 40 super tiger. I again had no issues.</div><div>A month or so later I bought a used worlds model p-47 with an os 90 4stroke. The air frame was 40 sized</div><div>So way overpowered needless to say I had great difficulty handling it after take off and ended up nose diving int the ground because I</div><div>Lost orientation. I then bought the hanger 9 p-51 PTA which I must say was an excellent move as it allowed me to move up slowly. It is truly an awesome plane which I can fly proficiently. All this being said I learned without aid of a club because I was intimidated by them. My LHS is huge and the airplane Guys do not seem to have time for a beginner. They are the ones out at the local club so of course I did not want to go out there.</div><div>
</div><div>I bought all of my equipment through this LHS except for the P-47 so I spent plenty of money I would think they would have jumped at the chance to help me and expand there customer base that is just not true. So when you guys that have been flying forever see some one new you should make a real point to welcome them because the younger generation is what will keep this hobby alive. Realise that some people can learn unconventionally. </div>
