    • Abstract:
      The article offers a guide to become an expert backyard pilot of remote-controlled planes. The first thing to do is to purchase a simple ready-to-fly channel trainer. The author suggests a powered sailplane because it is designed for first-timers. Consider also the size of the plane. Larger planes are more advantageous because they are more stable and easier to see. Buying a more sophisticated radio system is also important essential.
