The Gardener · 10-07-2008, 06:24 PM

I have started assembly of my extra. I'm not very impressed or i should say- not impressed at all with the quality. I'll be doing thread here about it. I'm going glow because of lack of experience with 4stroke glow engines + i love the sound, and wanted something to mess around- smell of methanol, castor, etc- I like that

I have no doubt about flying characteristics of plane, but those small misses just kill me.. I'll be leaving to Lithuania this weekend, hopefully with plane packed, so i'll take some videos, and have them posted here, and also in my thread.
Well, could not do that because my shipment with electronics is probobly lost. Pending...

It's a special technique of destroying expensive airplanes. 2. 3D flying is an evil addiction. It's a sickness that makes you spend all of your money on airplanes. There is no real cure for it, you just have to keep buying airplanes. The good news is that it is almost never fatal, except for marriages maybe. Last edited by The Gardener; 10-15-2008 at 11:58 AM.
