RE: First Flight no instructor
I second RCKens warnings about flying without club support or an instructor for beginners. Another note. You don't mention where you're flying. Is it your own private property or a public park? There are many of us struggling to maintain flying sites, and reckless behavior by beginners in a public space can make it very difficult for us to convince neighbors and public officials that we can fly safely (by safely I mean no damage to surrounding environs, people, or property). Please consider joining a club and getting some help. You won't regret it. Neither will any nearby flyers.
