Hi everybody!
I'm new to the forum, but have been a fan of FT on youtube for about 2 years.
I have one successful speed build of a FT Tiny Trainer flying great since last summer.
I've only flown it (or anything, actually) a handful of times, but decided this spring/summer I'm going to try to really get into scratch building, and building new designs if I can, as I really love messing with the plane and seeing how it performs, and think making experimental planes could be a great hobby for me.
A week ago I got the FT Aura 5 Lite, because I tend to overreact/over correct a lot when flying, and don't want to ruin my plane. I flew it successfully last night in 6 axis mode in a 3 channel setup on the Tiny Trainer. FT Aura 5 Lite is AMAZING, and it made me look like a Pro...until I got it stuck in a tree when I turned the wrong way. I got it down, but, embarrassing.
Anyway, I'm interested in where people fly around the Shoreline/Edmonds area (which is where I actually live), and possibly some wisdom/help on learning to fly. I got RealFlight9 to help me learn, and it's helping, but it'd be nice to have someone tell me what I'm doing wrong in real life/how to improve.
