Greetings to all
You're probably tired of seeing the new guy solicitng advice but try to stick it out just one more time.
I'm a 33 year professional pilot (Citation 5, HS125) and am getting close to retiring. Ain't it something that my new hobby will still involve aviation?
Anyway, I would like to get experienced opinions or even other newbies' opinions on how to start (with a minimum of club contact).
My tendency is to build a model from plans. Good idea or asking for trouble? Maybe start with a kit instead?
Also need advice on publications that may deal with shop set- up (tools list, mimimum space requirements, etc).
I don't believe my flight experience will be a whole lot of help since our aircraft flies best with computers and auto-pilots so would appreciate advice on aircraft that would be "forgiving".
Thanks so much in advance for helping me into the RC world.
