Yes, it is a great hobby. I've been flying for around 40 years.

I don't think any of my planes have run in 2 years, at least!! I have Great Planes U-Can-do 3d .46 size I over powered by stuffing a .90 size 4 stroke motor in. The gas ones got to be to much of a production for me though to get out and fly. I was really enjoying launching a foam plane in my backyard and doing tricks with it there last I flew. I'll have to get on the simulator to polish up my skills again though! lol


For those wanting to get into RC planes, I HIGHLY recommend a good simulator as a first purchase.

Crap! I'm getting a foam plane up and running this weekend now! lol

We are about a year away from making this real! We have a couple of more flights to do to perfect the parachute deployment system and then we start on the full scale wingboard.

Wanna ride?
