hey hope your plane choice isnt too hard.
Well i am a learner r/c pilot and i am just at the stage of doing my own landings.
I have a very good teacher and without him it would be difficult.
I fly a Vmar Apache III Trainer with a .46 engine... it flys really well and lands nice and slow.
Careful as some trainers look slow and docile but fly really fast... as my neighbour found out!
Good luck!
