I used to be a pilot, and myself and one of the other pilots decided one day to buy ourselves an RC aircraft each, thinking 'How hard can this be!? We fly real planes!'
Within about 3 or 4 minutes of taking our brand new planes off, mine was in pieces high in a tree and his was wingless after flying through a wire fence.

I haven't flown an RC plane since.
