 |  As Newbie as you and get.
Hi everyone, I've never done this before, but might as well jump in and get my feet wet. I've put together some 16 (ARF's), one of which I have crashed like a "dart" while a friend of mine was trying to teach me. I like building or putting together airplanes. I started out flying C/L planes, then went to electrics and some glow.

| It will fly!!!  | Re: As Newbie as you and get.
Hi David, Welcome aboard. Sounds like you have the bug. Good luck with the flight instruction. What type of plane are you using as a trainer? Check out the site there is a lot of good information in the forums. and the media galleries are full of photos and videos. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Our members are great at answering any question asked. Again, welcome to the Giants family. Wizard

Hey! You should definately use a buddy cord on your next flight. Get someone who has a rx that you can connect the buddy cord to that way they can take over and save the plane before you lawn dart it.

| It's official, thanks Verne...   | Re: As Newbie as you and get.
Hey David, It's great to have you join the crew!! I certainly remember the early days, not so long ago. As a matter of fact, I learn a little more every time I fly. You, my friend, are now addicted!! Welcome to the Giants!!!
