Default Howdy! from England!

Hi Everyone

Im new here, first post. I used to be on the old forums, but when it changed, i forgot to re-register.

Anyway, im from cambridge in England, im 17 years old, and ive been flying for nearly 5 years.

Im a display pilot for the UK distributer of the Extreme Flight RC kits, www.freestyle-rc.com and have been doing this now for 2 years.

My planes? well at this moment i have nothing, but that should change in the next week. I used to have an EFRC 68" yak, but i sold this mid june. I also had the EFRC Extra 300e, but totaled this the other week but sitting under my bench in my workshop i have a nice new EFRC Yak 54......74"!!!! this should be ready for next week, cant wait! also have a shocky being built at the moment, own design full fused biplane, looks nice.

Other things i enjoy is my music. Favorite bands are Opeth and Dimmu Borgir. Seeing the former this november i hope

anyway, thats about it for me
Ian

Hey Ian,

It's great to have you here!!

It sounds like you've been around enough to know how forums work, no need to get into that. You will find ours a little different, we try real hard to keep the Vibe smooth, no drama, no hassles. As you go through the forums, there will be a lot of fun, info sharing and members becoming friends, not a bad place to hang out!!

Browse around, there's a ton of stuff to see and read. It's not about giant scale as much as it's about Giant Style!! Take what you have, fly it hard, have some fun and fly safe, that's all there is to it!!

Welcome to the Giants!!!

Welcome Ian!!! Enjoy the site. This is the premire RC site on the web. I can't wait to see your input that will make this site even better. Sounds like you have had some cool planes! How about doing a build thread on the EFRC 74"?!?!??


Enjoy!
