Hey Mike,
Glad to see you back, are you just passing through or here to stay (back in pattern)? I hope you have regained your health, as I recall producing the Black Magic kits ended up being pretty stressful for you (as well as some other stuff that is best left in the past). Now pattern is almost 100% electric () and almost 100% ARF (). The Black Magic is still competitive in all but FAI in my opinion and I have a deluxe Black Magic VF3 kit sitting in my basement waiting to be built this winter.
Regards,
Will
