Now it's your turn to beat me to getting the info out!!!!! : D


What he said!!!!!!


Seriously, I can't recommend enough getting help from a club or experienced flyer. There are those that can successfully teach themselves to fly, but those are usually 1 out of a 100 odds in being able to do it. Most times what happens when people try to learn on their own is they wind up with crash after crash and finailly give up out of frustration. By seeking out an experienced pilot to help teach you the odds of your succeeding go incredibly. You don't have to continue to fly with the club after you learn, but it would be well worth the travel time to go to the club as you learn to fly.

It's not that flying an RC plane is some secret magic or anything like that. It's a skill that's not all that difficult to master. The problem with learning on your own is that you usually only have one chance to make a mistake. And those mistakes usually cost you an airplane, or at least a damaged airplane. By seeking out an instructor you remove the mistakes from the equation and you can learn without a mistake costing your an airplane.

Hope this helps.
