Hi everyone. New to this forum and the world of r/c planes. Was building a Goldberg Tiger 60 for a first plane but somehow got smashed in my garage just during covering. Nobody in the family seems to know how it happened. Hmmmm. Everything was done except finishing the covering. Anyway I'm now building a ARF Hobbistar 60 Trainer. Going well with assembly. Have a airfield near my home with a club that will help me get it in the air and buddy up on radios. Just bought a Realflight simulator G3.5 to practice with. I am a true beginner, with no flight experience at all. Fooled around with the new Microsoft Flight Simulator but that's it.
I would really like to get into the giants as soon as possible. Building the plane is not the problem for me. Any recommendations as to how long I really need to fly trainers before going into the giants. Pardon my ignorance but I thought this would be a good place to ask this question. All input is appreciated. Thanks.
