Default RE: how long will it take me to solo

My first time I soloed in about 10 flights. I got out of it for several years (kids, college for kids, etc) and returned about 2 years ago. Not like riding a bike to me. I crashed my first one after the second flight. Got Realflight and practiced for about 4 months. Flew with reasonable confidence after that.

If anyone has a lesson plan or something similar for basic RC flight instruction I would really like to see it. I have searched this site for quite a long time and can't find anything. I would really like to see a checklist and preflight/postflight checks, ground school, maneuvers, etc.

thanks-

Jim
