Written by an accomplished full scale pilot and R/C pilot, "Mastering Radio Controlled Flight" is an R/C flight instruction manual that offers a tried and true tested path to success.  R/C modeling can be a challenging hobby as a result of its very steep learning curve and the lack of "crash-ability" of even the most durable trainer.  This book provides you with the knowledge and techniques you need to be  successful.

This book offers an array of useful information to help pave the path from rank beginner, through basic flight training, precision aerobatics, and 3D flight.  Much like any skill-set, learning R/C flight is a process.  By starting with basic core knowledge and slowly integrating solid techniques, we can rig your path towards R/C competency for success. 

Filled with over 100 innovative diagrams and easy to understand descriptions, this is like no other R/C flight manual you've  ever seen. Most of the diagrams show precise stick placement along with the position of the model in each maneuver.  Whether your goal is simply to be able to safely maneuver your model from takeoff through landing, fly traditional IMAC aerobatic sequences with style, or to pull off a parachute into a torque roll,  this is the book for you. 

Quoted from the Introduction:

To become your personal instructor is a goal of this book.  I hate reading about the expensive problems that modelers have because they have had no formal instruction, and proceed blindly in this hobby.  I highly recommend following the guidelines established in this book.  By suggesting you use this book in conjunction with a mentor or instructor, and a flight simulator, I hope to make it possible to eliminate the growing pains and expensive repairs that often accompany learning to be a safe and accomplished pilot. 

 In addition, I hope to offer a learning experience to modelers of all skill levels regardless of prior experience.  After 20+ years of flying model aircraft, I find that I learn new information, a new skill, or improve on a skill that I thought I had previously mastered, every single time I fly. 

 May your flying days be filled with calm winds, round loops, and soft touchdowns.
