Yes, but only one. Find an instructor. You'll crash less when you have help.
Not really, in 3-channel rudder planes, you turn to bank. In 3-channel aileron planes, you bank to turn!

Are you using a simulator?
.could somone give me some usefull tips?
Yes. Get an instructor. Ailerons won't help correct a lack of flying skill and experienced advice.

I have been flying for years. Self taught even. First flight lasted 10 seconds. Switched to a glider then to gas. I got better from then on. I bought a Reflex flight sim a month ago and used it a lot. Went out to fly again since last year and I was way ahead of the airplane this time more than ever. It worked for me. There is a difference flying almost daily and a few times a month.
Yes Steve im using the reflex sim,to be honest though,its not realy seemed to help me much with planes,ive learnt a lot with the helis though. Keith "Steve Banks" schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:qMXae.241$ snipped-for-privacy@newssvr17.news.prodigy.com...
