thanks -- you guys are great,

TerrellFlyer and thejetgod, i'm in grand prairie, btw arlington and dallas. i happened to drove by a park labled as rc flying field by accident about last year, if i can remember correctly--it's about 15mins from where i live. i think frisco is somewhere north of denton...i think it would take me at least an hour and half to get there on good traffic. i'll probably just stop by the one near my place and check them out.

about the radio, currently i saw some listing for a futaba 6c cost simialar witht a futaba 7c computer...would there be any great advantages on the 7c over the 6c. should i go a head and get the 7c since i can get them at simillar cost.

cheers.
