Litespeed Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Tim, There are no silly or dumb questions at all- except the one you do not ask. Enjoy and spread your wings 1 2

Nightmare Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Good luck with it all Tim. I'm nearing the other end of getting the RPC, so if you have questions, I may be able to help. In a word, the whole process of getting your RPC is: Awesome!

Guest Offroad4wd Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Abit of an update. I was out at Flightscope Aviation early for the start of my training. I met my instructor Chris who is very knowledgeable and the way he delivers training is great. He explained things in a way that made it very easy to understand. He spent about 1 hour in the training room explaining the effects of controls. Then we went and got the Eurofox out of the hangar and he spent alot of time explaining the preflight checks to me. As we departed the wind was straight down the runway and we were off the ground in no time. We headed out over towards Beaudesert and Chris was explaining the effects of the controls and getting me to do some turns ect. After 1 hour (it seemed alot less but the time just flew by. pun intended) we were back on the ground. Chris didn't try and rush me and spent alot of time with me. I only booked a 1 hour flight lesson for 0800 and we finished at 1100 with 1 hour flight time. I have booked in again this Sunday and cant wait. Tim
RDavies Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 I was in your position only 2 months ago. It gets more fun and more rewarding a few hours down the track when you have learnt the basics and take more control during each flight. 1
