ok here is my suggestion to learn how to fly ...

the 2 most difficult things to do when training is taking off and landing.

unfortunatly you dont have someone to help you out on your first times up so I think this might help you get going.


find a LONG field that you can use ..

first learn to taxi the plane.. learn how to control it on the ground in straight lines and turning. also get used to turning while the plane is comming towards you <--- this is important.

now its time for flight...

start at the far end of the field facing into the wind.. start taxing the plane faster until it JUST lifts off the ground ... when the wheels clear the ground CUT THE THROTTLE and let the plane settle back down.(hence the need for a long field.) try to hold the plane level the entire time and dont pull up (you will stall)

notice if the plane wanted to tilt to the right or left or (hopefully) stayed straight.

use the tabs on the radio to add a bit of trim to correct this.

taxi back to you and now try it again and see if the plane stays straight. repeat until the plane stays pretty straight and you can keep it level in these short "hops"

time for a longer flight.

this time bring it up about a meter and cut the throttle and let it settle back down. try to get it to settle gently. repeat until it you can touch down smoothly note the speed that it starts to stall out and drop at... keep it just above this speed. LET the plane land.. dont force it to.

once you got that going try it standing along side of the flight path (not too close) ..

now here come the tricky part..

***note*** before doing this you must be posotive that you can force yourself to "crash" the plane if it gets into a situation that can result in injury to yourself or others... it may be nice to think you can save the plane but the safest way to prevent it strikeing somebody is to plow it in straight if you choose a remote area to try this it shouldnt be a problem but you must understand this.. saftey comes BEFORE the aircrafts well being

once you got that all going for you take off like before but keep the power on and climb out ... SLOWLY bank the plane AWAY from the "pits" until its about 30 degrees banked and use the elevator to keep it level .. right before it comes around full 180 start applying opposite aileron and level it off...

do the same thing at the far end of the field and and and continue straight... do a few circuits to get used to the turning.

now bring it to the far end of the field and line up on the runway bring the throttle to idle and let the plane settle down...

if you dont feel right about the landing GO AROUND I have seen plenty of planes damaged because someone didnt go around and "forced" a landing... dont be afraid of adding throttle and climbing out again.. wait till it feels right.

when it feels right let the plane slow down and hold it about 30cm above the ground until it wont fly anymore and settles down ...

after all this im sure you can figure out the rest

just remember one thing
SAFTEY COMES FIRST!

if there is ANY doubt... dont fly take you time and try to do it right

good luck
