ONE WEEK TO SOLO MANUAL 2
I wanted you to know how much I appreciate all of your hard work. Your explanation of the ailerons and the elevator was so clear. That pearl more than paid for the first book. And there were many more pearls as I continued through the book. I can not wait to put they to use outdoors.

The books are terrific. They really helped me get up to flying solo first time out and how to get the airplane down properly! I have a lot less crashes and more smooth flying now. Thanks again for your superb books!

Your “One week to solo" and has been a great tool to improve my skills and answer a lot of questions about how to fly rc airplanes properly. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in this valuable books.

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!!

Your Manual has provided me with the methods to make productive use of my simulator. I expect that when I fly, I will know exactly what I need to do without giving it much thought, and that is what I'm aiming for.

Your book is fantastic and made everything that my club instructors were telling me finally make sense. I showed your book to my instructor and he thinks it is great and plans to tell his students to buy the book to use when he instructs. I expect your books will help others as much as they have helped me.

Dave I just wanted to let you know the manual is great. I have found it very useful, and helpful. I had an experienced flyer help me out with the first few flights. What was amazing was the things I picked up from your manual and described to him have changed the way he flies now. If a person never did anything else when learning to fly R/C but read your manual it would be the best thing they ever did.

I used One Week To Solo years ago to learn to fly. The rudder to aileron mixing was one of the best things that helped. No one wanted to try to teach me that way, but when I set up the plane per the way you described and they flew it, they said boy it really does make turns easier and shortly after I soloed. I use your methods to teach everyone I help learn to fly. It sure speeds up the learning.

After studying your book, I was soloing on the buddy box by my third flight. I soloed for real on my seventh flight. I’m now flying a DA 100 powered 330S. My first student recently soloed after your bump-center-bump turning method helped put him over the top. Next I will teach him basic aerobatics from your sport manual. As for me, I plan to polish my flying with your third book and then learn advanced aerobatics with your fourth book.
THANK YOU, Peter
WOW!!!! You have absolutely taken RC instruction to the top!!! Your manuals are more professional than the full scale ground school guides I have seen.

Everything is very clear. The basic manual contains information that would be valuable for any level of flyer.

I have found your book, "One Week to Solo," to be a great learning tool! It lays out everything so clearly and makes a lot of sense. I think the graphics are a really big help in explaining everything.
Alan Buckner. Houston, TX Your One Week To Solo book is great. It helped me so much, more than my club teacher! Great, great help. John Kennelly, Chalfont, PA I just wanted you to know how much benefit I received from your flight manual. After practicing on the sim until I could do the things in your book, I was able to fly two 5 minute flights with no outside assistance. Jeff Steinberg. Posen, IL The DAS SYSTEM is laid out in a step by step format that is easy to follow. It helped me keep track of my progress until I put it all together and soloed without any trouble. Archie Paez. Jacksonville, FL Thank you for the instruction manual. By following the instructions, I successfully flew my model on my own on the first flight. Norman. NY, NY Due to your manual, I know I can fly my model. The manual will be an excellent reference to allow me to refresh my good flying principles as needed. Paul Moore. Plymouth, MN Great book. Even my wife thought the car analogy was really great. The diagrams are really very well done. Good balance between apparent view of plane and diagram of flight path. Well labeled concise but with thoughtful detail that really helps if you know something about flying real planes. Helps you make the mental maps that I suspect will be the key to this hobby. I read the article twice while riding the subway to work and that evening jumped right back on the flight trainer and took off and landed without the old turn with spiral followed by bang!. John Powell. Boston, MA I purchased all your great training manuals this summer and I have great success with them! I learned alone, using your books and sim, and I made my first flight alone and didn't crash my plane! (Hopefully I will not for a long time!) Pascal de Lorenzo. France I just had to tell you how impressed I am with your manuals. The quality and the content is great and I am so happy to have stumbled upon your site and ordered these books. I am certain that they will be put to good use. Based on what I have seen with your manuals, your school must be top notch. Bill Sneddon. Waretown, NJ I'm so impressed with what you have done. This should be a big seller. I've attended other ground schools and I can't get over how easy Your Manual is to understand. Mark Fletcher. Oshkosh, WI I certainly have not found any other learn to fly books (or anything else) that incorporates learning to fly into a step by step system. I now feel prepared to enter my flights with a plan. Ray Courtney. Liberal, KS I enjoyed One week to Solo so much I just ordered two more of your manuals. Thank you! Roger Boyles rogerboyles@gmail.com We were very impressed with your Flight Training Manual. The quality shows in 112 pages full of text and first class step by step illustrations on a very good grade of paper. Will be looking forward to more from you. Dick Kidd. Technical Editor, RCM
