There ya go. Make that drive for a few weeks until you get the hang of it and you can fly where ever you want to. Don't get sucked into constantly blaming the plane or equipment for mistakes you or others make. I see this all the time. We even have a local guy who programs while he flys! I am not talking triming here but in the computer programming and then blames the crash on the tramsmitter or some idiot thing rather than himself. I cannot tell you how many rated pilots have come out to the field, refuse help and leave with their plane in pieces. Learn the right way.

[There are several clubs around Joplin and Carthage. The club in Joplin has "trainer days" on Thursdays. I'm down in Anderson, which is a little far, but if all else fails, Come down on a Saturday and I'll teach you to fly. Heck, I'll even supply the plane!
