Default RE: Need help!!

well I can fly on the simulator really good and I can fly the super cub well, I even upgraded the electrics and put alirons on it, fun to fly. I have a dura plane with a .56 I beleive and have had it in the air and crashed it due to not thinking fast and pulled right on the alirons when I should have pulled left and up as the plane was banking right and slightly down as it was comeing towards me, my fault broke the heck out of it. I aslo have a tower voyenger with a l.a. .40 and a great planes P-51 same engin, I am scared to fly them because I seen what happened to the dura plane . I have crashed the super cup um like 20 times befor I got the Simulator and all I had to replace was the prop. This is why I want to go electric I have 10 acres I can fly on and there are a few trees so kinda tight for a glow plane and my skill level. I want to be able to take a plane off the shelf go fly for a few minutes and put it up, it is more of a process and messy with the glow engins. and from what I have seen I can crash an electric plane and put it right back up in the air. Maybe lipo is not the way to go for me. I can fly my super cup for 15 minutes on a charged battery, ($10 battery) and it only takes 10 min to charge so with a couple batteries I can fly all day.
