Hi Boyd!

Well .... after some thought, I think I'm going to go bigger rather than smaller. I've got LOTS of room to fly, and I'm very happy with my Corona. It's great to take to the grandson's house or to friends houses to raise a bit of havoc. The only problem with the Corona is that it is really not too living room friendly ... just a bit big for that kind of thing. However, I do have a 45 by 50 ft garage at the shop, and I just rented another "airplane hangar" to store the antique car, boat and Harley trailer. There is 60 by 125 feet of clear space there to play, with a 30 ft. cieling .... and it's heated. So I think that will get me through the winter doldrums. My eyes keep turning in the Graupner direction (I made the mistake of ordering Graupners' $29.00 catalog!), a 20 cell , .45 size heli, or something along those lines. I wonder if you have any suggestions on these birds. I think they call the mechanics "EletroMechanik 2000". At any rate, it will be after the holidays before I can even think about finding the time to do any research on the subject. I'm still putting my Superstar Ep together with a landing gear improvement and a fixed tail wheel. Using the Corona NiMh packs for power. And making snow skis for it at the same time ... tooo busy!!.

Gotta run ... chat later.

Happy & Safe flying,

Russ
