Please consider the good advice from above. You probably don't realize that a trainer is capable of reaching speeds of 70 mph! This speed can take you by surprize and leave you wondering what to do. Thats where an instructor can take over and give you a chance to catch your breath, rather than have you frozen on the transmitter as the situation gets worse. IF your plane were to hit a vehicle or worse, a person, you would be liable and the RC hobby would get bad publicity would hurt all of us in the hobby. [X(]
