CJ.

Very nice work indeed. I have always had an enormous admiration for those that can still build something from a basic sketch or an old plan. I also wish I had the time and to a certain degree the patience to to do myself.

Chris your very welcome here and you will find a myriad of threads and posts that will amuse and maybe even rattle a few old memories. The Flying Giants site by no means is intended to be construed as a giant scale site.

We have it all if it flies. I think deep down no matter what the passion from each individual is these days when it comes to RC flight we are a group who admire each others skills and talents. Whether it be building or flying, they are respected here.

Welcome and please enjoy the place. Above all participate and join in and you might just find yourself spending more time than you should here with us.

Chris,

Welcome to the Giants. Don't worry if you don't fly 3D, there's a ton of members that don't. We like all types of flying, I fly some scale stuff myself, it's a beautiful thing.

Enjoy the site, please come back often.
