Hey everyone, happy to be here and looking forward to being a helpful member of the community one day. 

I'm just getting into FPV Racing and RC Flight in general along with two kids aged six and nine and (if fate smiles upon us, Mrs. EchoBravo will get hooked as well). Have only had our first bird for a few weeks but so far I've learned I'm really good at breaking the VTx setup on the Eachine Wizard. 

Found you all after searching a while for potential solutions to a problem that just cropped up. Hoping to learn lots and get flying again real soon. Not flying sucks!

Welcome!
My oldest is 6 and she has been "learning the sticks" as well. She already does pretty well with ground vehicles. My son is 3 and has been working on potty training to earn his own first hobby rc (1/18th so its cheap but i can fix it vs toys we just end up tossing away after trying to fix it lol)
My Great Uncle (who got me into RCs long ago) always said "if you get 'em hooked on RCs early they wont have any money for drugs later on!" Wink

Welcome EchoBravo! Well you sure took the plunge going into an X220 right off the bat. After much advice from others I decided to start with a micro myself. Good luck on learning to fly as I been practicing on hovering with an E010 as a simulator I could not even hover on.. LOL.. guess I do better with LoS than sims.
