...Why do so many of you people have blast someone that likes to teach themselves how to do something? I do belong to a club, joined the AMA, but still like a occasional day at the field without a few dozen people around. If it makes you feel good to blast people like me, go ahead...
No one has blasted Glowfast here for teaching himself.
A few of us may have "blasted" Akimoto for calling those who join clubs "unimaginative" and "boring".
No, flying RC planes is not rocket science, and if every goes right, things are pretty straight forward. However, when things go wrong, the experience of the instructor can likely save you a trip to the hospital and even save your plane.
