OK,
I'm in a rather odd situation. I've had the RC bug for quite some time, but never felt like putting the $$ into it. My friends all chipped in and bought me a GP PT40MkII for Christmas this year. I would love to spend loads of time at a field with a trainer, but I live in Italy right now. Since my command of the Italian language ins't that great, the odds of me finding a trainer I can communicate well with are pretty nil. So, I ordered a video tape ' First U.S. R/C Flight School "One Week To Solo" ' In the video they talk about using a y adapter to control the ailerons and the rudder together to counter act adverse yaw. on their trainers. Is this a good idea with the PT40 ? If so, how do I go about setting the throws correctly ? Should I just fly 4 channel at first and then move to this config later ? Or should I start out with the ailerons locked ? My copy of the G2 should be arriving this week also. So I'm hoping that will give me a better feeling about this. I've really enjoyed the building part, and I'm looking forward to flying, but I'm also a little scared.... Any other hints suggestions or "Hey don't do that !!!!" s would be appreciated.
Thanks,
