This is a great idea guys. Like most of you I really cant' afford this hobby. But I'm in it anyway. For any of you that would really like to help a deserving guy, let me tell you about Mr. Hill. He is in the forums as hILLVILLE. Mr Hill is a middle school math teacher somewhere in IN. or IL.This guy teaches a class on R/C model airplane building. He has about 15 7th graders at a time building a class model. The kids chip in for the kit, but he has to buy all of the other parts. The kids each get some stick time on the buddy box, and several of his students have gone on to become hard core R/C er's. This one man is contributing more to the hobby than anyone I can think of. If you would like to help him in some small way I am sure that he would be very appriciative. PM him and see if you can help. He has posted some photos of the class at work in the TriPacer build thread in the Kit Building forum. Check it out, Page four. Thanks guys. This post is about all I can do to help him. I wish it was more.
