I learned patience with Guillow kits and gave alot of blood to the Sterling Pine log God. High Tech was a Torpedo 35 on baby pacifier pressure or a dynojet Red Head.
Cox and WenMac had a selection of imposible to fly ARFs. Pretty but they just wouldn't get out of their own way on takeoffs.
I love building but flying what I build is a gas too...
