Hi guys, I'm new to R/C planes. I have a Firebird XL which I have flown a couple of times. What do I do now? Do I join a club or what? Thanks for any help you can provide!

Sorry forgot to post before, here is a picture of it from their website.

Hi, I'm new
 

Well first of all...congrats! This is one great hobby.

Yes, I'd look into getting around some guys who fly - and a club is the best route.

That's the good news :)

The bad news is your plane (Firebird) doesn't fly like most R/C planes! The majority of R/C trainers (for example) fly a whole lot BETTER than the Firebird :)

So there...if you can fly the Firebird, you are a step in the right direction....

Welcome to the Dark Side!

You are starting out just where I did in August! Have fun with the Firebird while it lasts, but don't spend any money on it when you bonk it. Find a club, RC guys are about the friendliest bunch of fellows you can ever meet. Pick thier brains a bit, get yourself a trainer airplane and an instructor and have a ball!

Ok, so I gather the Firebird isn't a great plane. Thats fine because I really bought it just to see if I was really interested in R/C planes. It seems pretty good fun so far, and I will try and find a club. Thanks guys!
