As per the title, I live in Northampton and I'm looking for a beginner friendly club to help me get my A cert. I've looked on the BMFA website and its seems there are loads of options within a 30 ish minute drive around. Are there any members on here that belong to a club local to me ?   I'm really excited about getting started and finding the right club.  

Thanks everyone, One thing I'm looking forward to with this hobby (apart from the flying) is learning about all this new stuff. My Transmitter looks like something from the starship enterprise....

Thank Tim, thats put my mind to rest. I Can get on with enjoying it now. I just need to find a beginner friendly club in Northamptonshire and I'll be sorted.

This is my first post on the forum although I've been looking around for a while. I'm new to this hobby and have finally got around to buying a WOT Trainer & Irvine 46 engine to power it.   This is probably a silly question but on getting the engine out of the box it is very tight turning over the crank by hand, it seems to stick and feels like its binding when the piston is at the top of its travel, it is smooth  around the rest of the crank travel. This was with no glow plug fitted.   Never having played with an IC engine I'm not sure what is normal Do you think this a problem or is just due to it being a new engine..?
