Hi, The best place to fly is with a local club. You should be able to find a couple in your area to check out. They will be able to set you up with a person to help you learn to fly without crashing alot. The money you will spend on joining a club will save you in severial repair!! Try the AMA web page to locat a AMA club in your area. http://www.modelaircraft.org/templates/ama/
