Primodus I know How you feel. About two months ago I met these guys In my SMALL town that were into Flying Big time, they took me out to the flying field with them And I got to see them fly for the first time Man I tell you I am 34 years old And I felt like I was 12 again. I thought Man this is what I needed, so I rushed home and bought the first cool plane I could find On RCUNIVERSE form (trkpony) I got a great deal on a real nice plane radio gear and all the full set up. Well a little over ancious I bought a low wing Thunder Tiger Champion A great second or third plane soooo when My buddies heard what I done they decided to help me get the right one so we decided to go to a swap meet a couple weeks away that was agony too ! anyway I got a Great trainer (Hanger 9 Extra easy ) and radio gear and ever since its been too cold or too windy this is torture The Guys have been building there winter projects getting ready for spring and Im stuck here in limbo getting sim time and spending every wakeing hour learning from you guys ! Thats my story and Im sticking to it ! good luck and let us know how it goes ! Mike
