Default RE: Beginner??? Probably!

In response to your psot 180, Congrats! Sound like you experienced a little of the "pucker factor", that will wear off a little, but every time you maiden a new plane it comes back, that is why it is so much fun. Before ARFs when you first tried to solo a project with 100 plus hours invested and all your pride the pucker factor was even worse. Not tommorow or even next week but sometime in your RC career you will experience "brain freeze". You will know what the problem is, you will know how to recover, your brain will know the right resonse but just won't send it to your thumbs. It happens when things like you put the dual rates on the wrong switch happen and you realize the issue but can't compensate soson enough. Another good one is taking off without connecting the aileron servo, some guys can work through it but I usually have pieces before I find the rudder. Good luck you are well on your way.
