r/c pilots handbook: Basic to Advanced Flying Techniques from the Pros:
I found this book to be filled with info for the new pilot who likes to practice new skills at their own pace. I found it to be like having your own instructor only on your time. It is most important to have help untill you solo..
Poor Job Explaining Concepts of Flight:
Not sure who would order this book. It seems too advanced for beginners, but not advanced enough to provide anything new to experienced flyers. The use of diagrams was an interesting feature though none a explained clearly enough to be of much releveance. It was a ok first attempt, but I think the author needs more poslish in presenting technical topics such as this.
Scott Stoops' Book is Much Better:
The web address for the superb book, "The Pilot's Guide to Mastering Radio Controlled Flight" is at [...]. The more I re-read it, the better I like it. Scott Stoops does a fabulous job of educating the r/c pilot about how to fly WELL, not just OKAY.
