This is good stuff, I like the input from the other side also.

I am getting back into rc after meany years and my friend is getting in with my help. I was the instructer when I left rc to raise my family and I was surprised at how quickly I picked up flying again. I am instructing two men now.


One point I would like to ask or share is , we always let the student go as long as possable and take it back at a safe level.

I try and fly with the student as he has control, that way if it does become critcal ( and it does ) I have a better chance of saving the plane. This is very important on take off and landings, I will have the sticks in the right position before I get control. I don't mean to say the plane will not crash, it just means I have a few seconds head start.

Reading this is a big help to me, gets me thinking the way I used to train and back up to speed on what people (students) need from me.
thanks
