Default RE: r/c flying world breifing

Ok, here we go, lol. a 40 size glow Trainer, such as a SIG Kadet LT-40. KIT.

Join a club.

Get an instructor to help you get started.

That is the best way to get started. the other option is to buy 5 Kadets, build them all, take em out and crash one, figure out what ya did wrong,(could take hours, days or weeks) then fly #2, until it crashes, repeat step two, on to #3 and so forth.


Seriously, You say you dont have time and money to invest on instructor? Most clubs provide free lessons. and if you dont have time, then you probably dont have time to participate in this sport/hobby/addiction.

As you check out this forum. You will see many many threads started just like yours. Oddly enough the answers seem to follow a single theme:

1.Go to a local club

2.Acquaint yourself with them, get a few intro buddy box flights in.

3.Decide if RC Aircraft flying is really your thing.

4. Get an instructor to show you the ropes, while you build or purchase your plane and equiptment.

5. Relax and have a great time with it.....Its an awesome sport/hobby/addiction.
