Chad,

Everytthing I am about to say has been said before but I am going to repeat it.

While it's good that you are thinking ahead, you really need to concentrate on what you are about to do with the new club and slow down. You will probably change your mind several times before then. Actually you already have if you think about it. Just last week (I think) you were wanting to go the warbird route.

I suggest you hold off until you get to the funfly. I'm sure there will be many other pilots there with lots of planes that will just blow your mind...Talk to them, get to know them and let them get to know you. Show them how you fly the Stik when you get it, show them your 4* when it's finished and how you fly it and listen to what they recommend.
