have you located the local flying field yet?? if so start asking the same question of the guys, search out the local ? hobby shop, not the discount one, and ask for help. the ads in the flyers/magizines will tell you anything you want hear, till you get one of their products. also are you in fuel or electric? it does make some what of a difference-- building procedures are close to the same, electric is lighter- more fragile generely. dick
