I actually find it easier than standard RC.

It is much easier to line yourself up with the runway, straight down the centre line every time.

Judging distance from the ground is the only bit that needs getting used to, and I was a bit nervous for only the first couple of landings.
After that, it is a cinch. Just do a standard approach so you can judge the decent rate and all will be well.
The only times I have come unstuck is when hot dogging it in too fast in a gusty wind, but I have done the same in normal RC doing that too [&:]

But once you are confident at the controls (which doesn't take long) a whole new world of flying opens up to you.
The thrill of low passes (why are those guys lying flat on the ground? [>:] ), peeling out between trees, or just thermalling your way up into the clouds.

Just make sure the fun police aren't around
