Wow, that makes me and my best friend naturals or what ?
we started out with a trainer 2 years ago, never went to any club, never talked to any (other-experienced) flier, we just decided to by a plane to spent a rainy weekend, and decided to put it in the air 2 weeks later. We both had several flight & landings that afternoon, before we finally crash landed, braking a prop en the landing gear.
Now, 2 years later, we still have that trainer, it is still flying, we bought a second trainer a month after the first one so we could fly simultanious, it's still flying as well, and we both bought a new plane this season the move a step further into the hobby with a GP Easy Sport
But I do have to admit... we had several crashes, quiet some repairs, and undoubtfully a longer learning curve.... nevertheless, I recently met a guy that is into RC competition, and he told us our flying was actually quiet good. But I do wish I had met him 2 years earlier, as he would have been a great help in making us learn faster...
