Crashing a plane?

Sooner or later it happens to everyone involved in this hobby.

No one can guarantee that even if you follow all the advice given here and get an instructor that you won't crash!! You may minimize you're chances but there are no guarantees

If you try it without an instructor you'll crash....

If flying with an instructor prevented crashes I'd still be flying with mine

Seriously Papa,

Before you spend any of your hard earned money think about my first sentence.

Most people I know that have been involved in this for a long time go by the saying if you can't afford to crash it don't fly it.

I'm not trying to discourage you. If you're plane crashes don't worry in most cases you'll be able to rebuild it. A skill you'll want if you ever scratch build like you said you wanted to.


I've said this before and I'll Say it agian.........

Look at SPADS before you spend any money on a kit.

SPADS (Simple plastic airplane designs) on your budget it might make sense to look into building these They claim that you can build their planes for 10-20 US each
