Status: offline 		I know it's not 1/2 A, but it's what has been keeping me from 1/2 A. +, this is where I usually hang out. Don't really know any of the guys in large scale. Stinger 120 w/a Supertigre 3000. Flew it today after a recover job (last flight was 2006) and it was great. 4 flights till an axel broke on landing even though the landings were gentle. Flies like it's on rails. Actually makes me look pretty good........

I have a strong interest in flying Cox powered RC models but sometimes I have to try other things to avoid limiting my life experiences and to keep from burning out. I fly sport glow in various sizes up .91. My son and I also have quite a collection of Parkzone BNF planes in micro and park flyer sizes. The last several planes I built are Cox powered so my summer project this year is to get my 60-size TF P-51 airworthy with a 4-stroker. After that, I've got a TD .010 project lined up to keep my roots solid. It will be featured here, of course. Maybe then, I'll get back to my steam powered boat build. There are a lot of neat ways to enjoy this hobby.

Status: offline 		TJ! How do you really feel 3/4 of my stuff is 50cc & larger, but i seem to relax building the smaller stuff. Rubbernecker, my first GS was the larger Stinger with a 62cc gas motor, so i know how much you must like flying yours. Most of the elevators on my planes are larger than my 1/2a stuff! Anyway, its all good as long as your building and flying. Speaking of building, i need to get back on my Schoolboy, .......Gene
