I don't know how anyone learns without ailerons. I have a LT-40 and the days you can fly in winter are few and far between, so when a sunny, but breezy day came around a friend and I went out to fly. I was so eager to get up and fly I forgot to hook up the ailerons. To make things worse, you guessed it, I forgot to do a flight control check. No sooner then I got in the air but, the wind was knocking it around so much I had a hard time keeping the wings level. The wind just kept pushing it further and further away. Not realizing that I had forgot to hook up the ailerons I just got it as close to the ground as I could and let the nose plant into the ground. :cry: I know I still have alot to learn, but I'm glad I started with ailerons.
