Wow! One pirahna comes in a takes a bite and the rest of the school starts a feeding frenzy. I didn't see anyone whining I saw someone discouraged because his FIRST FLIGHT, did not go quite the way he had imagined it should. Now we have seers and prophets who have decided (after one flight) he should quit. I think you should go join his club, you would have a common attitude. Come on guys. The thing I have always appreciated about most RC folk is they are encouraging, supportive and understanding. They have been there done that and understand one crash is nothing to worry about. You pick yourself (and the pieces) up, dust yourself off. laugh a little and go again.
If our club had chased off rookies the way you are trying I would be short some good friends.
