I am sure there is a lot of skill required to fly RC, but does it transfer. I played a lot of "Leisure Suit Larry" back in the day, but not sure that helped me either!
On a real note I did take a crack RC helicopter guy flying in a helicopter, he could not be trued without a tight guard on the cyclic, i.e., he didn't know sh!t about flying a helicopter.

I bought and built a kit radio and a kit plane and took them to the local RC field. I was a jet pilot! I can fly anything! This will be easy! Why are all the other planes painted a different color on top than on the bottom? I soon learned... Every "landing" I ever made was straight down at full power and resulted in a complete rebuild. Hmmmmmm... Maybe there's some skill required after all? Dan |
