Being completely new to RC's (as I am), I have one stupid question (and probably a whole lot more): What is RC Combat? That is, How is it supposed to work? (okay so that's two questions)

Hello,
You might try looking at this web site. It will answer your question..... and more[8D]

Warrior, I've been flying 2-3 years now, 2 of them in combat. All flying is fun but combat is an especially fun time. First learn to fly properly and then take advantage of the many resouces available to get info and choose from an ever growing list of planes. Combat is fast and furious, or now can be tamed down with the new SSC class. Plus combat planes don't need a runway to take off and land, you can fly them almost anywhere.

Oh yes, and I almost forgot. <///><
