"Please don't be discouraged by the plateaus. Its during the first or second plateau that many people become frustrated with the hobby and leave." LEAVE the hobby...[X(][X(]
Not a chance my friend, there is nothing like the thrill and challenge of flying for me. I find some of the basics boring yes, but I still practice them because perfecting them will help me do the advanced stuff. (I try some of that too in between figure 8's and such )

I can only think of one occurrence that would make me leave the hobby, (Aside from a disabling health issue that forced me out God forbid.) and it would only be temporary. Assuming I crashed hard enough to completely destroy my plane, and my shoestring budget was used up I would temporarily leave the hobby, well not really even then because I would still go visit the guys...

In all thanks for the advice guys I will be practicing these things VERY soon..
