RE: I am a newbie learning RC flight
RDThompson- Thanks you just helped me. I never have changed the turbulence and forgot it was there. I have never changed the difficulty from Intermediate and don't even remember it being there. The point I was trying to make with the Dazzler and the Extra Special is to teach yourself with a touchy airplane. Overcontrolling especially close to the ground is usually a big problem for beginners. These two planes will teach you a finer stick movement..if you keep the throttle up a little. The planes you mentioned the warbirds might help you get used to the stalling but they are more sluggish than even the trainer I have.
I taught myself to fly using the Transall electric on FMS. That plane would fall out of the sky if it got too slow. It took a month for me to be able to land it consistantly. I also used a game pad since I had no TX interface.
I just tried those turbulence settings you said and a 20 mph wind. I like it. I have flown in in that before. I think you can work with a 15mph wind but set the turbulence to about 15 ft. When i fly the closer I get to the ground I can really notice any wind. Thanks again for pointing that out I knew something was missing.-BW
