Wildwobby,

I know that you are anxious to get started, but cool your jets a little. Here is what you need to do.

Go to the AMA website. Find a club in your area. Call the number listed and talk to someone from the club. They will tell you where they fly, and what days are best to find them out there. Whoever you talk to may even arrange to have someone meet you at a specific time. They may also have a club trainer that they may let you fly, just to get the feel for it. They will set you up with an instructor (for free) and probably have advise as to which plane/radio to buy that they have previous experience with.

In the beginning, there are far too many questions to ask on a forum. Most of them are better answered in person anyway. So contact your local club, and let them help you get on your way!

And good luck! You'll love this sport!
