But this ISN'T a 3D-Imac-Heli hucking-forum...

"What are we into? Pretty much all things that push the envelope! Giant scale (didn’t see that one coming huh?) foamies, glow power, or sport models... If it's in the air and you're havin' fun with it, you'll find it here!"

I think we're taking it a little to far...

Scott, you're right. Everyone is giving some attitude. However, it's defensive. I for one would have no problem whatsoever, going to a giant scale meet and flying my scale airplane in a scale manner and not flying 3D if indeed that's the rules of the event. Everyone's feathers have been ruffled ONLY by the fact that he claims our planes are not "real scale models".

Freak has it right! This place supports alot of SIGS, second only to RCU. ITs one of the reasons i come here. Alot of info on ALOT of SIGS. You guys are making Asss of your selves just talking about this event. You realize every Mag is going to be there to cover this? What about the event sponsors? You think they will not show? You guys are nuts you should be there for the better of that event. Show some of that support to your sponsors they support all of us. I would be willing to bet you will see some of this sites sponsors, Think big picture. Or just complain that you cant fly your kind of aircraft. You think about what you have to put up with just to fly 3D at your home field You all find a way to work around that.. Come on. Quit your bitchin and get to either flying or building something for this event..

Well said voodoo2. Show you care guys and go make a decent donation to the children of our fallen soldiers fundraiser. Voodoo2 and I donated. Have any of you donated yet? It's better then arguing over flying "scale" airplanes. The thread is on the homepage.
