I appreciate all the suggestions. I have a copy of the FMS flight sim, and experience with RC cars, so the reversed controls when coming at me has not been a problem with them (cars). I also have flight experience at full scale (lost medical, thats why RC now). I am still looking into the club or instructor, as that is my preference, but I may still do it alone. I have found a club about 40 miles from here and have not been able to contact them yet, but hopefully I will be able to find some help in that area.

Thanks again
