Well heres my story now,, I want the Alpha for christmas and i pretty much have it, my mother said she would pay for it. I am going on vacation for christmas so ill get it like 4 or 5 days earlier. So before i leave i want to at least break the engine in however much it needs since they do most of that at the factory, then i want to fly it at least once. After i come back ill get AMA and the membership at the field. My backyard is a desert so i have plenty of space to fly. Anyone with a decision for me or some advice would be greatly apreciated. Thanks
