Hi Motor 710,
I see my friend Clarence has already recommended my school, Hobbies Aloft R/C Flight School ( www.hobbiesaloft.com ), and I thank him for that.
I do provide all equipment, or students can bring their own, but
I thought you might like to know a couple of things about my school that are a bit different from other schools.
Firstly, training is done the same way as full-size professional flight training is done, with students paying only for stick time flown. This means the amount of time and how much money students choose to spend on flying lessons is completely up to them. To earn a solo certificate, a student must demonstrate three consecutive (video-taped) solo take-offs and landings with taxi back to the pilot's station. Typical students need 8 to 12 hours of instruction to earn their solo certificates, and accomplish 2 hours of training each day they are at my school.
Secondly, students experience more than 100 hands-on take-offs and landings each day of training, starting day 1. Again, just like full-size flight training, the emphasis is on learning how to land, right from the start.
Happy flying,
