When I called AMA to research your school they gave you seven stars out of five! The school met and exceeded all my expectations and my first Solos back home were textbook.
Joseph Balabon. Mays Landing, NJ Your instruction technique is terrific. Your patience is beyond belief. I would not hesitate one moment to recommend your training course. It took me 30 years to get to your school and you had me flying solo in three days. Thank you again & again & again!!!!!!!!

I want to thank you so much for the week my son, Nate, and I experienced with you. Of all the education courses I have taken over my life, yours was the very best. I cannot remember having a more organized and influential instructor. This last Sunday morning, Nate and I snuck down to our family airstrip we made and each of us made five successful flights. I even made an inside loop which drew an excited “WOW” from my wife.

The course, the equipment and your teaching were all excellent, even better than your site promised!

I am beyond ecstatic with my experience this week. Thank you for the great methodology and instruction this week. In a word, 'awesome'.

My goal in attending the Flight School was to be able to Take off - fly comfortably and land the airplane in one place. The objective was achieved during the five day course. I would highly recommend the Flight School to anyone who wanted to learn to fly in a very short period of time without crashing a number of planes.

I'm really excited about what we learned during our time with you, and I'm finding that the skills you taught us work as well in Nebraska as they did in Wisconsin! I'm very grateful to you, and will tell anyone who will listen to "see Dave in Shawano". I came to Shawano with high expectations; and you met, or exceeded all of them. I'm looking forward to seeing you next year!

As a very demanding consumer, I readily admit that I am almost impossible to completely satisfy. However, I can honestly say that I have never been more satisfied with any investment of my time, energy and money than I am with the training provided by your school.

I have been flying models most of my life since the age of 11. After one afternoon with Dave my flying had progressed more than it had in years. If anyone thinks his help won’t benefit their flying, they’re wrong! Daves calendar always fills quickly for the upcoming year. Whether beginner or expert, get on his list and I guarantee that you WILL be rewarded with an excellent experience that will help improve your flying skills more in a week than you would in years on your own.

Attending Dave's aerobatic class was the best money I have spent since taking up the RC hobby a couple years ago. Words cannot describe Dave's passion and enthusiasm. His teaching methods work, his approach is logical, and he is a master in his field. I was somewhat skeptical as to what could be accomplished in 4 days, but now I am a believer and I look forward returning next year.
Jim Crowe. Fort Payne, AL
The course totally exceeded my expectations, and I had high expectations. I now have the confidence that I am totally in control of my plane. The DAS system just can't be that simple, and yet it is!!! Please feel free to have anyone who wants confirmation of your courses worth to email me. I will tell them that it is the best $ I have ever spent in the hobby.
Steve Storman. Harrington Park, NJ
I have had training in large aircraft for 43 years and have never had an instructor as fine as you. Your ability to make the complicated seem simple is genius. You have turned correcting errors into an art form from which I have learned. Dave, you are my new Hero. I will be back to take your next course: Sport (Basic) Aerobatics. Many many thanks,
Paul Mlinar. Pound Ridge, NY
Thanks for this past week. It was a huge boost to my flying. I have more I'd like to share but for now please let my complete satisfaction with your class ring loud and clear!
Phil Taylor. NH
Thank you for another exciting week of flying fun. I feel as though you have taken me to the next level of RC, and then some!
Jim Clapp.
What a great week! I spent all last year with these characters at the club telling me how well I was doing, in reality I was looking a little better than most, but not even close to where I need to be. Curiously, I have been finishing just above the middle of the field in contests, but when I go back and looked at the video of my competition flying, everyone around me is making the same mistakes I was! Now, thanks to your training, I know exactly what I need to do to start winning!

Dave Scott is a SUPERB teacher, with "nerves of steel" and a quiet, relaxed manner that leads to early confidence in flying. The student's only concern is to learn, and have fun while learning. The tuition is far too low for the results obtained-approximately 30 solo "takeoffs" and "landings" each, by myself and my son before the week was over!!! After 5 days in class, I have completely revised the approach I will take with respect to the equipment and the type of aircraft I will build. Even if you exclude stick-time, the school was cost effective.
Tony Fassi. Palm Beach, FL
Please allow me to reiterate what a fantastic experience your primary course was for my sons and myself. Your approach of treating both flight preparation and the actual flying as though it were full scale is absolutely on target for maximal learning and fun with minimal headaches. I only wish I'd come to the School BEFORE making all the ridiculous mistakes! Hope to see you again in the near future for aerobatic training!
Ken, Nate, and Ben Moore. Las Vegas, NV
I soloed the first day back home without a problem. When I went out to fly the next day there were several members at the field, but none had unpacked their airplanes because of 15-20 mph winds. They were amazed that I would even attempt to fly. As they watched and waited for me to crash, I just kept remembering what you taught, and finished my flight with a pretty good landing. I couldn't be more pleased with what I go out of the school.
Dan Sprung. Bergen, NY
Once again I can’t tell you how pleased I was with the training you gave me this past week. It was much better than I anticipated. I am excited to get out and practice what I’ve learned.
Jim Stadler. Oshkosh, WI
With encouragement and individual attention, David Scott provides a wonderful experience where you can learn effective skills you can rely on. If you’re interested in a solid foundation to RC flying – and an enjoyable week – I recommend it highly!
Marilyn Foli, Minneapolis
Having been a full-scale instructor for over 25 years I can truthfully say your method of RC instruction is superb and effective. You have an inborn talent that makes you a unique person. I look forward to attending your advanced classes but I must first perfect the basics that you so beautifully illustrated during the week. I believe your class should be mandatory for anyone wishing to excel.
Romeo Bachand. Mundelein, IL
Thank you for a most enjoyable week at your facility. The edifying and always scintillating "ground school" discussions and the overall experience was excellent. It was far more than I bargained for and a pleasure indeed from start to finish.
Lawrence Cotton. Thornhill, Ontario
Since the class I have found that I have more confidence in my flying abilities. I am more relaxed and enjoy the sport more than ever. I have to admit that my investment in Dave Scott's class was the best thing I have done to improve my ability to fly.
