Oh!!! I miss so much those saturdays evenings building balsa planes with my father... I'd really love to repeat it (build planes) with my son but some chinese-note there is no adjective- decided to make:

Please make them stop manufacturing large scale foam ARF's! [:@]

And while I am at it:
(...) putting servos on the outside of the fuselage! How ugly, how un-scale, how lazy. Get back to installing servos inside the model and using linkages!
(...) putting full face motorcycle helmet wearing pilots in airplanes! Nowhere, anywhere, does a pilot wear a full face moto helmet in an airplane!
Please; let's Dope and epoxy smell come back again!!!!
I did not get the building with my dad legacy, but I did some with my kids when they were small enough to be willing to hang out with me. Now all they think about is video games and foamies (if you can peel them away from video games), they still haven't gone girl-crazy. Lets face it, most kids are not going to be interested in spending hours building when they can grab something flashy off the shelf (foamy) or worse yet, just push the power switch on and poof, you have a video gaming instantly going.
