Just Getting Started - So now what??

I have lost a lot of cash trying to get started in this (mainly quads and airplanes). I need help in basic wiring, soldering, assembly, and final set up/test flights. Is there a one place shop for the beginner that is laid out in laymen? I call myself searching here, but maybe I am not using the correct search string.

  • For learning to fly, first, buy some spare props, maybe an arm or two and a spare motor.  I don't know of anyone learning to fly a multi rotor craft who hasn't crashed.  Before your first flight, read the Wiki section on "First Flight"

    Learning to solder videos are all over You Tube, but use a quality soldering iron, like this one from Radio Shack.

    Ramsey Electronics makes some easy to build kits including a Learning to Solder kit.

    You should also consider looking for a mentor in your area.
