RE: ? about learning to fly
I thought myself, If you are set on doing so, remember babysteps.
I started off with an overpowered trainer (balsa usa stick 40 w/ an OS .61 engine. I crashed it twice (one time taxing) then i finally got it. I had many planes in line so i decied tha after one flight to go to the next plane. This time a glider, got me more used to distinguishing where the plane was. Then a delta wing came next, was proud of the first flight even though it was rough at first. Then i just alternated from there. I taugh my self reaction times in a simulator, and maybe rc car helped? At least with opposite controls when facing you. I was also relaxed too. I had a "intro" flight a year before and i just said "I can do this"
