New to site, fairly new to hobby and new to posting threads. Hows that for green? Started out as RC parking lot sitter for a couple of years. Never thought I'd be coordinated enough to fly RC. Can hardly walk and chew gum at the same time. Anyway, bought a sim back last December and practiced on that while building a HobbyStar 60. Flew first time on buddy box in March. Soloed on 14th flight. Since then have had a Stick 40 and am currently training on a Seagull Models Extra with an OS .61 and a Pitts style muffler. It's sweet, but after a taste of gas, I'm wanting to move up for next Spring. Looking at a PAU (BME) Extra 330L. Can get a great deal on a barely used airframe and will acquire balance of parts (engine, servos, etc.) over the winter. Flying Giants Forums is a great place to research on my venture into gas airplanes. Brian Last edited by FlyBriel; 11-18-2007 at 10:50 PM. Reason: spelling |
