couple of thoughts. Go to common Sense R/C, Radical R/c or New Creations R/C and take their advice. If you contact NCRC be sure to ask for Kirk. Once you have a working system then you can worry about learning the complicated stuff - and it can be done! I'm a self-taught e-flyer. Learned e-power (not r/c flying) by reading everything I could find. One of the best sources was [email protected]. The Ampeer archives are filled with all kinds of easy to understand info aswell as some pretty esoteric stuff. come to think of it Ken Myers is very helpful.
