this is a pretty simple plane to fly. go to a park if you can and get some wide open space. instructions will come with plane explaining how to set it up and charging procedures. after that its pretty much a GO. have fun. you may want to read up in the electrics forum's and get some more insight. i think you'll handle it just fine.

thats correct, get some experience and learn to fly that thing in your sleep, then you can move up to something else. like a 40 size glow trainer. there's thousands to choose from. let us know how it goes.
