Good RC pilot. Change my Mind.

Want to be a good RC pilot? Here is what 40 years of experience taught me.

  1. Start by practicing on a simulator.
  2. Build or get a motorless glider with a wingspan of at least 1.5 meters and, head to a suitable hill. This will teach you to feel the air. Pay close attention to the CG and the recommended control throws. Less is more.
  3. get glider with ailerons.
  4. Finally, get a motorized model.
  5. A lot of newbies fighting with Bixler. I see it in our club. However, if they took off the propeller on the hill and flew in medium wind, they would advance much further in experience.
