I make custom electric guitars in whatever spare time I have and helis are just the next logical step.

Maybe I should make a helicopter theme guitar or maybe a guitar shaped heli...

Status: offline 		I'm 53, with an 11 year old son, we've been flying e-powered planes for about 4 years, I am a displace electrical engineer, now in sales. I am the secretary of the SEFLI (Silent electric flyers of LI) we host the NEAT fair each year. I am a novice heli pilot still on the training gear. I have a VE and just put a deposit on a used ECO 16. ( My son is a great pilot can fly almost anything, he wants a heli now also (think about fixing 2 heli's at a time!)

Status: offline 		I'm 24 and my wife and I have a 1 year old daughter. I'm trying to make time for this hobby.

Computer Engineer and am interviewing for jobs currently, after being caught in the techie layoffs :-)

I now have time for my new mini dragonfly. These things rock!

I started with an electric heli(kalt whisper) about 10 years ago then a lmh100 gasser for 3 years. I must say electrics are much nicer to work with...if only I had a pool of charged batteries.
But you got to hand it to gas for flight time and power gradient.

I've been running a traxxas nitro stampede for several years also.

Everyone seems to have an airforce background. I think maybe that's where I should go too

Status: offline 		29 years old, got a smartech skylark 6 months ago, and I like it a lot. I've broken it a few times but I've always been able to fix it. Never into RC before that.
Grad Student now, and have have a private pilot license for almost 3 years. Real planes are easier to fly than RC helis!
