You know what Kennel...You have come on here and posted that's ok...you disagree, that's ok as well......
But to come on this forum and in a round about way blast those that teach others when you have had no expierence with an RC instructor is not a good way to start a hobby that is as social as RC flying is......instructors don't commit??????? I have never once charged for instruction, most instructors don't.....I have given my time and flown with a student instead of flying for me...alot......I give common hardware like nuts bolts and screws because a student hasn't learned what to carry yet....I have my own buddy boxes and cords, because I don't trust the clubs.......I have gone to the field and stood because a student didn't show and didn't call......not just me...every instructor has stories like this.....
You never learned a skill that you didn't teach yourself...perhaps the problem lies within the mirror, instead of the instructor......sure we all crash you are correct...but I didn't crash my airplane learning to fly...my instructor saw to it......
Good Luck on your flight.
