Vent

When you put a hose on the vent make sure its still leaking oil.

Greased landings

Moose carbon fiber has landing gear that works well on the SE.

Radios too many choices

Here's an idea for the show of hands trick. Go to the field and ask someone if they have a 4 channel transmitter you can barrow while you learn. Then all you have to do is buy a flight pack. Oh year...

Research

It certainly would be interesting to have some research numbers to tell us if the accidents per 1000 users is increasing.

Good display

This shows how different people can be. You'll take $20 to risk a $100 plane and your buddy will risk $20 to see you crash.
