I have been flying for 9 months now but have acquired a lot of knowledge since then but am still learning much more as the days go on. This is an intriguing hobby. When I first cam on here I had just bought a Giant Scale TF Corsair. That was the only plane I had and was asking for ideas on it and was surprised how many people " jumped " on me about that. I was kind of pissed at first but heeded their advice. Bought a Hobbico Hobbistar 60 Select because it had everything you need to start and it is big. I nearly crapped my pants on my first flights but got the hang of it soon after. The moral of the story is that I am very, very glad I listened to their advise. The more I learn the farther back the Corsair project gets pushed.
