I have the firebird phantom but it seems very fast and hard to get use to. I have smashed it into alot of stuff and it is very tough which is good. Is this too fast of a plane for a beginner or do you smash until you get it right. I have other planes that I built but they are to nice to distroy learning. I also built a Slo-V but afraid I will just kill it. Would like to fly but can only fly Air Hog Aero Aces. Is there a best way to get started? I go to the big field but still have trouble. Once I get the plane up I fly erratically ,up, down, around, dives, steep climes, you name I do it and all out of control, until I come down or it comes down and crashes. Don't be shy whats the deal? Should I FORGETABOUTIT! Ron
