Where Do I Begin

[heisenberg98]

I am trying to get into the world of electronic projects. I have recently worked on a project to build a simple Arduino Simon Says game but this mostly consisted of taking code and circuit designs from online. My knowledge of electronics and software is fairly limited but i was looking for advice on how to best learn more and start getting into larger projects. Ideally, one day I'd like to build some remote controlled devices, like small RC cars or quadcopters.

Taking code and circuit diagrams from the web is a good start.

Try to understand how they work, make small modifications, and try to combine several different things.

Well, I would disagree. If you know nothing about programming, you should start with learning programming concepts, preferably on a PC where you can instantly run your programs and see the results. After you are familiar with programming basics, you can start looking at code for micros. If your intent is to use Arduino, start with the C programming language.
