school Ace- what you told your freind is so right on. i am also fairly new in this hobbie.
I have so far in 1 1/2 months made tooth picks out of 2 fuses 1 set of wings 1 set of tail feathers in 7 flights
reason= wind ,taking a chance when a rely new better but had the itch to fly thinking i could handle a little wind
wrong wrong wrong!!! be patient and you will be much more happier with a good day of flying and comming home with a whole plane then a bag wood and such. trust me it gets old quick repairing or replaceing suff every
time you go to the field and take chances with the wind if your a newbie at this its tough with out somebodys help
thats what made it hard for me also real hard to get any inst, [training in this area] ?? the RFG2 sim is great
for practice. NEVER GIVE UP its like fine wine only gets better with time!!!!! LATER!
