Default RE: SR721A Help??


ORIGINAL: Countryboy

Flyjets,

Man, that is like finding the proverbial 63 Corvette that has been stored in some little old ladies garage for the last forty years...well, maybe not to that extreme!!! I say find a local museum for it and let the man's work live on through the eyes of others. There is a reason that you don't see them at many event's....the few Yellow versions I have seen fly were rekitted in short order. Sure, everyone would love too see an R/C version of the SR-71 fly, but the odds of it's success from takeoff to a controlled landing are not in your favor despite your flying ability. Some things are just best left alone for obvious reasons. As an R/C modeler, you have found an R/C treasure...treat it as such.

Ughh, wice mans words.
I entirely agree.
