A few years ago for my birthday, I got a flimsy $80 RC airplane, and crashed it first flight. This discouraged me, but I kept at it, and eventually bought a Hobby Zone Super Cub. That airplane is the BEST flying plane I've ever flown, or seen fly. It flies itself! I bought a Hobbico Avistar Select 40 used, and started to fly it with an instructor from a club in my city. I ended up going to the field to fly on a day that was too windy, and my instructor wasn't there either. I talked to a friend, who was still learning for himself, and decided to go fly with him. I have a feeling that would have ended in a crash. Luckily, before I got a chance to put the plane together, a gust of wind caught my wing and slammed it against a table. There was a good sized hole in the covering, and ended my chances of flying that day.

         After putting away the airplanes and gear for about a year, I drug all of the old stuff out. I decided to fly my Cub again, but had to replace the batteries. I have been flying for almost two months this time, and am getting a lot better. I have soloed 4 times with my nitro trainer, and haven't had a close call yet. I would recommend getting really good with your park fliers, and you'll have no problem flying a nitro. Same thing!

         For Christmas, I got a brand new Hangar 9 Katana 50, which Hangar 9 has just put on the market. Really nice airplane!! I have it assembled, but have no radio, servos, or engine. I love this hobby, and will stick with it. Just don't be scared by a nice roaring nitro engine. They are really fun planes to fly.



P.S. if you have a good .55" nitro engine you want to get rid of for cheap, hit me up!

     Thanks!
