I think these videos can help.

This is just an idea. Don't modify any of the programs that are already in the radio. That way you always have a good program stored in the radio. Start with a new model. Make your own program. Because some day you will need that skill. If the new program is bad, you can always delete it. Do a search in YouTube an look for Edge TX. Look for a guy name Painless 360. He has some good videos. I'll see if I can find something on my end. Good luck.

That's smart. I'll go that route, thank you Sir!

Good advice, I'll try to remember to be easy on the levers. Thank you.

One more suggestion. If you are building a tail dragger, allow the tail to come off the ground before takeoff. When the tail comes off the ground the plane will gain more airspeed & the rotation at takeoff to be more gentle. Some beginners hold the tail on the ground the whole time, when the wings finally have enough lift, the plane will jump into the air.

Thanks Merv, that is definitely something I will keep an eye on.
Much appreciated.
