My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I have been to Todd Bennet school and for me it was well worth it. Todd is a great instructor, very calm and very knowledgeable. I was stuck and could not seem to move on to the next level. Since the school I have been progressing very fast and getting allot of compliments at the field.

If the wings are traveling faster than the fuselage, it's probably a helicopter.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		The Matt Botos / Todd Bennett school was worth every penny!

Matt did our class, we learned a lot and had a blast doing it flying the prototype N5 on a buddy box. Matt is a relentless school master!!!

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		+1 for Todd and Matt's school. Did it in September at the Brooks FunFly. I'm also considering going down to So. Cal and doing some private lessons once I have a chance to build my skills based on the two day school (which turned into three) at Brooks.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I'm not sure if he holds schools anymore but about 10 years ago my father and I went to Bob Harris's flight school in Virginia. It was a bed and breakfast. You could also bring the wife and/or girlfriends too because Bob's wife had Zekiah glass which is a stain glass school. It was an amazing week. I will never forget it.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		In the school that we did with Matt Botos, we probably benefited most from his setup experience.

I was too nervous on the buddy box to actually learn anything significant, but I did manage to pick up rolling hurricanes and I can do them pretty good now.

I also learned something I should have known, stop flying the 5-15 maneuvers I know well and try new stuff constantly, this is the single key factor in progressing.

I, probably like most, just go stick bang it around and bullsh*t with the guys at the field and don't focus on learning new stuff, something I intend to change.

You're confusing me

If you don't need basic help, than what would you like to learn from a pro? Like how to do a chaos?

You can do that on the sim like on Phoenix you go spectate and you see what the other guy is doing with the transmitter, and it can be explained, recorded and watched over and over on any speed you want.

I'm not against learning from someone, just trying to see if there is any alternative to get what you need, without paying money for something which someone else would be glad to show you.

If you use Phoenix let me know, I'm online all night I might be able to help you
