1st RC Flight school manuals
Your sport aerobatic manual is packed with invaluable information that I could find no where else. Previously I had been trying to learn new maneuvers with little idea of how they where performed and no idea what to expect. The DAS System has helped me greatly "see" how the maneuvers are constructed and flown. I now look forward to entering my practice flights fully knowing what to expect. You should be very proud of what you have put together.

Since learning from your manuals, I'm going to walk my students through your manuals step by step, and get the fulfillment of showing/teaching this great sport of ours the right way!

I just received your training manual and I can't put it down. This is excellent!!! It is just what I need to get me off the plateau I'm stuck on.

I want to let you know that your "Sport Aerobatic" and "Intermediate Aerobatic" manuals are fantastic! I've flown three times since I received the books and have improved every time. Excellent advice, clear - concise information, great illustrations, all presented in an easy to reference, easy to understand manual. A home run! Thanks for your work preparing these excellent learning tools. I'll spread the word to fellow flyers in my corner of the world.

I'm so impressed by how clearly you organize the lessons and how easy you make it to learn. Now I feel I have the foundation to do just about anything with practice. Keep up the good work.

Your manual describes me and the problems I was having perfectly, and I'm amazed how simple you've made the solutions. My confidence and flying at the club field has vastly improved.

Your Instruction Guides could not be more clear and understandable. You're the best!
Ralph Barney. Salt Lake City, UT
Just a note to tell you how much I enjoyed your intermediate aerobatics manual. Every maneuver we fly is explained in terms even I can understand. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to review your manual and improve. Gosh, I might even move up to IMAC Sportsman.

I am very impressed with the clarity of your work on flight training aerobatics. Your directions on flying a round loop are simple and the most understandable I've encountered. Great Job!

Your books are the best kept secret in R/C. I don't think you could keep them on the shelf when the true potential of professional flight training syllabuses are discovered. Then people will be talking about making progress instead of all the talk about crashing.

I will recommend to the father and son I talked to you about that they get the RC simulator and your primary training manual and apply your methods and procedure rather than playing it like a video game and developing bad habits.

Your teaching manuals are awesome. So easy to read and understand. I'm helping others in my two clubs and already the beginners are noticing that they are making more progress with me as I EXPLAIN HOW to do the basics like turning and flying straight lines. The other instructors just shout "turn left"!! They're not aware of my secret weapon - the 1st US RC Flight School. I'm teaching myself the moves using your manuals and you're right when you talk about bigger rewards when you are progressing. It's just nice to have a goal rather than fly around aimlessly. Pity I'm not in the USA - I'd love to be one of your pupils.

Thank you for the instruction manual. By following the instructions, I successfully flew my model on my own on the first flight.

I find the illustrations in most publications nothing more than pretty pictures with absolutely no stick positioning information - no real help. So I would like to commend you on your approach at publishing your manual. I have not seen anything that is comparable.

I found your book as a very useful guide for beginning on a flight simulator. It's very well written and presented.

For a while, I thought you were "giving away the store" with your online lessons. That was until I (ordered the Manual) got half way through your book. Almost the entire last half is particularly good material about Landing. I think now using my Simulator with the complete information you've provided on setting up the alignment for Landing, and under adverse wind conditions (including crosswinds), that I will get very proficient with all of the concepts in your Manual and be able to solo on the 2nd or 3rd time out. I am in debt to you for making available excellent self-teaching materials!!
