I decided to bring out some old glow stuff out at the flying field today. Well one of them was a Great Plane P51. I have a OS 40 engine in it. Two other guys at the field had some fast glow planes. We all went up and flew pylon racing with them. I had more fun with that than flying the gasers today! It was nice to take a break from the gasers. Yes it is a mess to fly that type of glow plane, but boy it was fun and you dont have to worry about crashing it! lol!!! Thats my story for today.

Some of the funest flying I have done is Zagi racing with my brother. I need to replace the stripped servo, him and I need to get back out there with them. I used to purposely try to run into him. ![]() By the way, I'm the one that dumps it, not once, but twice. ![]()

I prefer small electrics to bash around. Less mass to worry about when you dump them doing crazy stunts and the gear usually survives. As for the glo......I've had it with the the mess and extra gear required. I own 2 motors..... YS63 which I'd probably sell and a YS140L which I most likely won't as it goes to my unfinished Pattern plane.
