    This volume on R/C aeromodeling will ensure your success when you start out in one of the most fascinating and exciting hobbies of our time. Gerry Yarrish - an editor of Model Airplane News magazine who has a lifetime of experience in the hobby - writes specifically for the novice who wants to learn to build and fly model airplanes quickly and successfully.

    You'll learn about the advantages of joining a modeling club, the types of model "trainer aircraft" from which you may choose, and how you can best meet the variety of challenges faced by all new modelers.

    From equipping a workshop area and building your first plane to flying in a pattern around your local flying field - all the tricks and tips you'll need are described clearly and succinctly.

    Once you've mastered your first R/C trainer, you'll be prepared to take on that next challenge, whether it is in scale competition, aerobatic flying or giant-scale aircraft or involves any of the many other special-interest areas in R/C aeromodeling.

    Gerry concludes with a description of the many avenues you can follow to get the most out of this exciting hobby and sport, but be warned: it's addictive! Your life is about to change forever!
