    I can't help you with flying lessons... but, if you are able to hover in all orientations then you should be able to do some basic flight.. I think it just takes confidence to do it.

    My advice is push yourself a little more, not too much but just try push it a bit... step by step... just try flying in a straight line from left to right - stopping in a hover each side, turning and repeat.

    You just gotta have the confidence to do it and no fear crashing it too much! lol

        I do know of a 3D pilot who could possibly give lessons but you'd have to travel to Lincoln
        not sure what he charges though

        if you want more info PM me

            If you put up your location, maybe worth sticking a thread up asking for lessons.

            Or create one post, where everybody can seek people wishing to give lessons.

                  Contact Jase Platts at Ultimate Build and Fly, he offers lessons at North Notts Model Flying Club, he is an excellent teacher and will undoubtedly help you progress, i realise it's not in Lincolnshire but definitely worth the travelling.

                  His number is 07545 156993

                  Hope this helps
