Default RE: In-flight jitters

Hey Same here. I just came home from the field, i took off was flying no problems, overcast skys,got a little to far could not see the plane very well due to the overcast looked like a big black thing in the air with wings. could not tell where i was going. i finally got it corrected made it back to the run way. but i was shaking so bad becauseihad such a hardtime trying to get it under control,i tried several attemps to line up to land and could not do it. sweating shaking so i had to yell to the other guy at the field to help me. he came over and asked what he could do. i got the plane high enough asked him to land it and handed him the transmitter.
I have only been flying a year or so and never had a issue other than mild shaking but this was pretty bad. i think it was bad due to the fact it was a plane i redid over the winter not a 100% ARF. thenexstar,s are a no brainer break a wing eather fix it or buy a new one, but this plane was a custom ARF with a lot of work on my end.
i do what the other guys says alot, i like it when a fellow club member stands next to me andtalks it kinda take theedge off flying, we talk about everything from planes, to girls dont have to be about flying, i guess it helps me relax.
just wanted to pitch in my 2 cents worth.
this is a great site and for the most partall you old timers give good advise to us newbees, and they should, its agreat hobby and if they keep it all to themselfs it would be a dieing hobby instead of a growing one.
My thankstoall of you who have helped out the new guy one way or another.

Keep it stright and level
