Default Hello From Western North Carolina

Hello All,

I'm Bryan Moody from the mountains of North Carolina. I have been into RC planes for several years, but am just now getting into gas power. I curently have a Kangke Waco with a Brison 2.4 which has proved to be a great first gasser. I recently purchased a DA 50 and am in the process of shopping for an aerobatic aircraft for this engine. Being a poor boy, I have been looking at one or WildHare RC's 50cc planes. A friend of mine has the Edge 540T which seems to me to be a fine flying plane also with the DA 50. Anyone have any sugestions on other planes to consider?

Looking forward to coresponding with everyone

Hey Bryan,

It's great to have you join the group!!

Browse around the site, you're going to love this place! The members are awesome and the info is endless.

You might want to ask that question in the "giant scale airframes" forum, I think you will get a lot more exposure in there.

Welcome to the Giants!!!

Bryan! Neighbor... almost. Welcome my friend. Honestly.... I really do not see how you can go wrong with any 50 cc arf. I would always recommend anything Extreme Flight has, but now, they are retooling a new 50cc bird and dont have one yet.... I hear a lot of good things about the AeroTech 28% Yak and John is on here regularly from AeroTech with any questions. And at $535.... thats smoking for todays 50cc ARF's.
