If you have any tips other than "Don't do it" I would love to read
them.

I taught myself to fly. I first read all I could find about flying
models (I had some experience with full size) before I launched. I
read Stick and Rudder, etc. I thought I could do it. My first flight
lasted about 5 seconds. It was a hand lauch with a 049(Centurion). No
throttle. In looking back the biggest mistake I made was assuming that
the engine had enough power no matter what.
I pulled back on the elevator after launch and it went up and stalled.
Suddenly it all sank in. Whoever said being an external pilot is very
hard is right. Simulators are the way to go.
