Learning to fly model aircraft
If you are interested in learning to fly radio controlled aircraft, then joining a club like PEMAC is the best place to start. You will not only have access to qualified instructors but you will receive the best advice on what first model and equipment to buy. Indeed our first advice to the newcomer is to hold off buying anything until you pay us a visit first.
How long it actually takes to learn to fly a model aircraft really depends on the student but generally between 6 - 12 weeks is the norm. The process can be accellerated with the use of computer simulators which serve to re-inforce the actual hands on flying at the club field.
Student pilots work towards achieving their solo endorsement and may proudly wear their AMAS silver wings on successful completion of their training.
