DO NOT BUY ANYTHING, YET. We use two different training systems to start you out and the one chosen is dependant upon your level of knowledge, ability and allocated trainer. Both systems have buddy box capability so that you can get the most out of your initial learning experience. Once you get started you can discuss what you need to buy with your instructor. When you have your own equipment we can organise for that to be used for your training. You may require a buddy box unit dependent on which radio Tx you have purchased. We will try to team you up with an Instructor that can buddy your system if possible. Our aim is for you to be at ease and enjoy the experience of learning to fly model aircraft.
Before you rush in and take to the air there are things that need considering just as there are in full size flying. Make your chosen flying site and you as safe as you can. S.W.E.E.T.S.
Again before taking to the air give yourself the best chance of making your flight and returning to ground safely and able to fly again. S.M.A.R.T.
If you have any doubts why you should consider joining a club and flying properly with consideration and care, here is a PRIME EXAMPLE of problems you can cause, perhaps without even realising you have done so.
