Hey Big,
I just bought a P-51 PTS on E-bay!! What the hell you only live once and given the foul weather and more winter ahead it will give me time to train on my PC til spring!!
Thanks for the good advice. As soon as you commented on throwing myself into it I knew you were giving good advice that I should take to heart rather than ***** foot around and feel frustrated with crappy gear. I'm contacting those local clubs tomorrow and getting this ball rolling!! Thank for all the advice esp. BigEd.
I am new into RCing as well Mini and I am a big fan of the P-51 . I wished I would have done a little more research and found that P-51 PTS I would have bought that myself. I like the progression it offers you . You have a newbie to a skilled flier capability in that plane. Congrats and welcome to the world of RCing. Start a savings account lol.... there are tons of things to buy. It seems like when you think you have what you need, you need something else or really want to get something else. Also a simulator will be great. It helped me a ton. I have never touched a RC until now and I have been able to take the simulator experience right to the field. Makes for a more comfortable maiden flight. Good luck and welcome
Thanks for the best wishes Wideglide. I had an RC car that cost me a ton back in the late 80's but thats about the extent of my RC experience. For years I have been interested in R/C flight but just never took the leap. I’m in with both feet now and excited to start a new hobby. I was trapping and selling coyote hides as a winter hobby (and income) and other than my motorcycles I don’t do much else in the summer or spring. I do some geocaching and hunting also
Now considering your screen name I have a feeling you may like motorcycles as well. I’m sorry that you choose an underpowered HD but I’ll ride with anyone so it really does not matter. Just breaking you up a bit. Again thanks for the best wishes. I did notice in the classifieds there is a P-51 dts in there that he says he will part with for $275 plus actual shipping if your still interested in one.
