use self control!! i was introduced to r/c about 15 years ago by a independant contractor
2 states away from where i live. i then went out and bought a 40 size trainer waiting for
him to come back (he never did). however i was hooked so i left the wing off and drove
here around the street in front of the house until i figured out how to steer. found out just like
you the nearest instructor was 89 miles away and the field was another 15 miles past
that.he told me that he was a pilot in ww2 when he started to learn r/c he told everybody
that he was a pilot and did not need a instructor. 11 aircraft later he decided that enough was enough and finally admitted he needed a instructor. you need at least 1 trip to a field,
why not wait a little longer and perhaps save a lot of money in the process. would
hate to loose a new r/c fan over a small amount of time. instruction is free!! or hows about
a sim i have one,was not thinking of parting with it however...mike[&:]
