Default RE: Why can't I fly?

Hey Chall,

Like everyone said its not you. I entered the hobby back in May and my first plane was a megatech skyliner. I couldn't get the doggone thing to achieve flight for more then 10 seconds. I spent more time re-ordering parts for the plane then time in the air. One day I got so frustrated after like my sixth weekend of trying to get it to fly that I went right to the hobby shop. I ended up purchasing a firebird xl and 2 hours later I was @ the park flying; I was actually flying. 3 minutes later I crashed but that was because I was so excited and I over controlled the plane. Since then I have built a GWS tigermoth (great plane for a beginner) and a glow powered plane called the avistar. I love this hobby. So like everyone mentioned get yourself a nice starter plane and get addicted to the hobby just like everyone else did.
