RC Clubs in Perth, Australia</p>

This page contains a list of RC Clubs in your area. Contacting them and getting an instructor would be the best way for you to successfully learn to fly. While it's not impossible to learn to fly on your own, it's improbable. It's usually 1 in 1000 that can successfully teach themselves to fly, so are you the 1 or the 999?? And those that do teach themselves to fly don't do it without breaking planes, usually a lot of planes. While most that learn with an instructor have no broken planes while learning (I've been instructing for over 10 years and I've never had a student crash his plane while learning). If you are dead set on learning to fly on your own the best advice I can give is make sure you are not in an area where you can injure somebody or destroy property when you crash. </p>
