RE: Self taught flying - My diary / progress
Carl, greetings from SoCal.
Like you, I taught myself how to fly at an accelerated pace. It was possibly the most fun I ever had flying rc!
It looks to me your doing fantastic, probably as good as half of the veterans in my club, lol!
I have two .46 engines that run bad on 10% but run great on 15 %. Maybe something to think about.
Also glow plugs on new engines can get contaminated with fine bits of metal and run to cold but look fine when powered. Fairly common I think.
Keep trying (Up High) new moves, explore all your control throws at different speeds (Bang Those Sticks)!
Keep it up, your going to be a good pilot!
