That's the spirit, - we're not done yet! and a broken prop or even a plane or two can't be termed a "disaster" - all part of the fun I think.
Build a lightweight swivel recliner of some sort, and a whole new world will open up for you, believe me!
Good luck with the flying.

I see you have done a lot of work to make it possible for people to have a go at this sport who otherwise wouldn't be able to consider it, they are lucky to have you around, and I hope that it has opened up their world somewhat, - I'm sure they will agree that it has.


Yes I'm a bit self conscious about my little predicament, and I did get a pretty negative response from a club I was intending to join, specifically from the club captain, and being a little rebellious (and angry) I decided to try it myself, - and it worked, - maybe it won't for everyone, but with a little commonsense, I don't really see why not.

I used to be passionate about motorcycles, and hoped to still be riding when I was older, however, I can't even throw a leg over a bike now, and this flying is giving me a new lease of life.
It's ironic that it was model aircraft engines that got me interested in motorcycles originally, (similarities in the engines) - that was way back in the late fifties ( when they were still using escapments in RC ) and it was easier to ride bikes than learn to fly aircraft, so I went for the bikes.
