Help Needed
 

I am a newbie and trying to fly this one [http://www.lowcost-rc.com/rc_planes_venom_betty.htm], but finding it really hard. Not sure if it takes off from the ground, but as of now throwing it in the air and trying to keep it in flight, but it keeps nose diving. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
HV

You got the order wrong, jetmech05.

FIRST - Get thyself to the local R/C field and seek the help of an experienced pilot or instructor.

Secone - Let HIM safety check and test fly the plane and show you how to set up the controls.

flying by the seat of your pants is fine if also in the seat of your pants is a pocket with a fat walet and another pocket with the patience of Job.:(

I don't know the real statistic but learn on your own successes are super rare.
what this guy would learn in a few days would be priceless.

And if he ever gets it up I don't want to be around; the danger of an uncontolled missle, even a small electric is not stressed enough here.
