I just got in to theis hobby and have flow my super cub trainer and my neighbors 4 channel cessna(he just got that as his first plane). I taught my self to fly and on my 3rd day I was doing tricks and flying upside down. I have been flying for 2 weeks now with no crashes of my own and can get my plane to do any thing I want with out any issues. My plane is electric and I have bought bigger batts to make it faster (it will now climb stright up) I guess what I am tring to say is that you can teach yourself how to fly without wrecking
LOL
But seriously, get some help before you hurt yourself. We all love this hobby and I am not trying to tear you down at all. Please listen to the advice you get in this forum. Flying an electric park flyer and a glow trainer are very different things. You will need help with ground work and flying...trust me on this.
I don't want to discourage you, but I would rather you were discouraged than injured or sued.
Good Luck!!
Yes please listen to the advice you recieve here. Im still new to this hobby myself but Ive learned my lesson on the difference between electric parkflyers and glow powered planes.
I too started on the Hobbyzone Super Cub and was very proficient at flying it , but it in no way made me to where I could fly glow powered planes.I had to have an instructor!! Plus, Aside from all the ground work(tuning your engineand etc..) glow powered plane are alot faster in the air than some electrics,at least the super cub anyway,which in my opinion seperates electric and glow in comparison. You will need an instructor in order to learn how to handle the takeoff without plowing into something or someone,being able to maintain smooth control of your plane in the air, your approach for Landing(which is definitly different than the super cub) and the dreadfull event of a deadstick .
As teh above stated, Im not trying to discourage or tear you down,but there is a huge difference between these 2 types of planes.
