Default RE: just got new trainer..

thanks all!! I knew i could count on you guys.

Now, Im expecting the plane in acouple of days (sent by ups yesterday), and i have a place to fly it. what would you suggest for a standard starting procedur on these small engines??

I was pondering what the first flight controler inputs should be for a simple take off, circle, and land. should I jab the throttle all the way forward once the plane starts down the runway? when should i give it a little up elevator?? will the plane give me any sign for when the elevator should be used? I believe i should land into the wind, but to stiff a wind and these light planes will be overcome. how much is to much wind??
