You need a big area flat and smooth all open at least 200yds all around, Set your plane on the ground and get it moving away from you by gunning the throttle up and down while holding full up elevator, don't let it get going too fast at this point your just getting the feel of the controls, holding up elvator keeps the nose from planting unless you have a nose gear. Just practice the taxi away from you and then make a turn and bring it back to you, get good at that and then speed up until She lifts off and immediately back off and hold it level back to the ground without ever gaining any real altitude, as soon as feel it lift off back off throttle immediatley let it come back down smooth and level. Thats how I learned withpout any assistance whatsoever.
