Ill tell ya from a personal experience that i just had. Ive been flying for about 2 years without a crash. But just a bit ago I was coming in to land and my wing clipped a tree branch. I simply misjudged my plane and the trees distance. Even tho mine was a bigger plane, If your just starting out, i would suggest you find a flying field, or at least an open area without treets... in your area. Even tho it is a small electric, you'de be surprise how little room there is when you get the plane up in the air.
just my suggestions...take em or leave em
