RE: Help for the new guy
Nah, no kickback from Chris...he just lets me play with his cool toys when he finishes them. It is nice to have local. Actually I was going to get the Miss Wind 50, but the wife said, no, she liked the monoplane better since it matched the other 2...so now I have the 3 Wind S planes. I'll get the bipe next though. I'll get some pics tomorrow evening.
You can easily get through the sportsman sequence. I've flown the masters sequence which is close to 7 minutes takeoff to landing, and uses a LOT more power and still had plenty.
