Sorry to hear about the run in with the tree. I have been out of the hobby for about 2 years, but I had to get back in. There is something about seeing your work of art take flight and float around gracefully! I am a slow flying type of guy, but also will fly a trainer and some bind-n-fly models, but my true love is motor gliding. I may even get into non motor gliding. As of now, I do not have means to build, but in the next few months, I hope to change that. I have a Dynaflite skeeter kit, and a craft air stepp 2 kit, but what I really want to do is another butterfly or piece o cake build and build it as light as I can.
