Default RE: ideas for a first plane


BMXstreeter15,

"advance your skills without having to buy another plane" ??? When would you NOT want to buy a new plane?

When the plane your flying is on it's way to re-kiting itself you should be thinking about your NEW PLANE...

Always keep a wreaked plane around so when you see a new one you can't live without you can just parade that wreak through the

house when you come home from the field for your wife to see and her sympathy will get you that new plane.... and I still sleep good at night.


I fly glow (slimers), gas AND volters, volters (the real ones) are the most expensive and if your into SCALE it's the only way to go.

I have about fifty flights on my 40 size OV-10 Bronco with Axi motors and it looks like the day I finished it except for some hangar

wrash. No cracks in the plastic cowls, I didn't have to butcher them up for the mufflers to hang out, no loose joints from vibration and

no oil soaked wood.

For those of you who are afraid of trying a twin engine airplane because of the often fatal "engine out" scenario, the chance's of that

happening with a volter are slim.
