Technology is why I fly, how about you?
What you mean DF-Flyer, I was gonna ask Funfly1 if he wanted to swap wives. I do have a friend whos wife is really involved in the sport and I'm teaching her to fly right now. She was at our fun fly last weekend and saw a plane for sale and almost drove him nuts until he bought it for her. It was a 102 size One Design that the guy only wanted 100.00 for. Oh, and the only reason she wanted it was because it was covered in Pink and White monokote. I only wish my wife was more involved in the sport. I get planes given to me often, and at first it was not a problem, but now when I come home with a FREE plane she don't have the same look on her face. The last free plane cost me 700.00 by the time I put an engine, PCM receiver and servos, etc...to get it in the air. It was a 120 size Laser 200 that I put a RCS 140 on it and it flies lights out.
Ya'll have a good day.
