RE: Why Beginners Do Not Want To Join Clubs
RC Clubs are a great idea I have not joined one because the nearest club is 45 miles A club would of saved me a lot of money when I was learning to fly Learning to fly on my own was still fun also new friendship are made at clubs The main reason is I just walk out my door and fly I have 300' grass runway I build when I started to learn to fly I live on a farm I only have 45 acre but there is a total of 240 acres in the family Currently finishing a pond that will be 300' x 100' for wild life and float planes
