It occurs to me that being a bit more specific might be appropriate as a blog and more useful to myself at least.
So, guided by Colin:
1) Introduced to the wing; unpacking, laying out, checking lines for tangles and removing any found.
2) Used As & Ds to practice launching the wing and controlling it in the air & on the ground. I can see that wing handling & control will be the focus of practice & learning for some time. It is fundamental & essential after all.
3) Introduced to the motor. Walked around wearing Colin's motor with it running. Experienced its weight, throttle response, thrust and torque. Awesome.
Left feeling that I had definitely made a start, gained some insight and enjoyed myself.
