Percy, thanks for there reassurance John, as a newcomer to this hobby I welcome the "proficiency certificate" which allows stabilization. I agree - this is a hobby and it should be fun. I fly multirotors as well and I met few people who didn't bother with BMFA, because of rules they found too strict. I've heard once: "I haven't spent £800 on a gps quad to fly it in manual mode". Yet those people would clearly benefit from learning safety rules enforced by BMFA. I'll still pass the A-certificate though.

Slopetrashuk, Dave - thank you very much. I'll replace the receiver soon, so I can train without it before exam.

Hi, I'm preparing for my A-certificate and I wanted to take it on my E-flite Apprentice S 15e, but I have doubts about the Safe mode on it. Do you know anyone who did their exam on this aircraft? I'm slightly worried about the stability modes on it. There are three stability modes on it - beginner, intermediate and experienced. Is the experienced mode (no take off or landing help, unlimited flight envelope) legal for the exam? Thank you!
