Simple answer?
It depends on whether or not you want to keep the Pilatus.
Seriously, you will be much better off with a more basic trainer and some help from the local fliers in your area. In addition to
helping you to learn to fly rc without tearing up lots of balsa, there are countless other things to learn. It's best to have someone teach you these than to have to learn averything the hard way.
Safer too.
Good luck and welcome to rc.
