Congrats on your purchase of the Aerobird! I'm also a new pilot, and its the wisest $150 I think I've spent.

To be honest, and not just speaking to be kind, I really don't think you have anything to worry about as far as your flights are going. You seem very competent!

My first flight with the Aerobird went very poorly. I did a ground launch, and it lifted off beautifully, and everything seemed to be going well.
I hit a slight of gust of wind though, and the plane was bushed down slightly and to the left. In a first-time panic, I gave it full up elevator and tried to bank to the right.
The plane did a nose spiral down to the ground, slamming into the dry dirt hard, snapping the wings in half.

After replacing the wings, I've had nothing but enjoyment with this plane! I now have 6 flights under my belt, and they are much like yours: Simple, level flying around the perimeter of my flying area, at an altitude of about 100ft. Often times, i just set the throttle to half power and let her glide along the breeze.

Before I try any aerobatics, I'm first going to perfect level flight, and landing exactly where I want it. I too have a large area to land it, and just seem to let it glide in wherever the breeze takes it. One of these days I'm going to mark off a simple runway and test my ability at touch-and-go's.

Anyway, its good to hear you're enjoying your Aerobird as much as the rest of us. The best part for me is, i know I've only scratched the surface of what this plane can do!

Good luck and happy flying!

P.S. What kind of winds do you usually fly in? 10mph? More? Less?
