Hi

To have any chance of flying yourself you need somthing that virtually flies itself 3 channel rudder elevator which you can still learn a lot from. and it needs to be trimmed nicely.

prob best to get 2 or 3 such planes and travel however far to get somone to set them up, trim them and at least give you 1 or 2 lessons.

A simulator would be a great help to.
