Yeah, but too much current draw caused his voltage regulator to sag which caused his ticker to reboot.

You misunderstood him. He woke up and saw you holding the paddles. The paddles looked like hooves, and your face looked like, well, the south end of north bound horse. "That horse kicked me".

Glad Bubba is ok!

Glad to hear Dave and Neil are doing well! Jeff from DA called me today to tell me my 85 shipped out this afternoon, I need to order a muffler from Jtec and I'll have the Cap RTF.

I was at Jtec just yesterday, picking up Matt's Panzl. I'm sure Al will fix you right up with a muffler. I'd get the large volume one, Al says it is actually lighter than the standard one.

Hey, didn't I hear something about a possible ARF kinda' like it (but better) from the same designer coming from East RC? That would rule.
Yeah we're gonna be ARFing Jerry Smiths' Spoiler...which is a slightly bigger and better performing version of the Big Boy. So I'm gonna build one of those when we get 'em. Until then, I'm gonna get off my @$$ finish some new projects!

You guys have fun at the Sizzler!!

Jerry let Matt fly the Spoiler at last year's FFT, Matt was having a LOT of fun hucking that!

I wish people would quit letting Matt fly their stuff. His wish list keeps getting longer and longer.

"Go daddy, build me another airplane". LOL.

So, Dave, I'll have to buy one of the first Spoilers you get in stock.
