Default finally soloed

so I finally soloed, got G3 for christmas and been messing around with it for a while and decided to get the parkzone typhoon 3d and see if the sim paid off, now I know what guys mean by "pucker factor" , well I drained the battery on the first flight, I loved it, the plane flies great and the sim definitely paid off, just thought I'd share

Mikey,

Wow man, that is TOTALLY awesome. Funny you bring this up, I'm actually a closet Orinthopter fanatic. I've spent the past 8 months working on a home built, scale condor that I hope to maiden this weekend. Weather permitting. You should see the claws on this thing. They're so scale that the my neighbor's cat just hisses at it! Crazy.

Congrats!

MD
