RE: The Australian bbq and beers
<sound of tinny cracking>Hi all - I'm Ozrcboy - I live in Canberra (heh - don't get mad at me - you *elected* them), I'm 32 years old and I came to RC flying last year after a few pretty awful life events left me needing to find something to enjoy and sink my teeth into. RC flyign is brilliant - there is always a new challenge, and if you master one particular aspect (not that I have yet) you can always move onto another thing.
My handle - ozrcboy - was choosen to reflect the fact that I looked at (and still look at) RC flying with the passion and enthusiam of a youngster.
Thanks to all my mates on the Australian Thread for making it such a terrific place to hang out.
That's probably enough self congratulatory rubbish from me - my full hangar is [link=http://www.oz********.com/2007/01/hangar.html]here[/link]. Just a quick rundown on what is actually ready for action at this moment.
MPXT - this plane is serious fun but it does need a big motor.
Elebee - the one - the only "Killerbee" - striking fear into the hearts of stock stryker pilots everywhere.
Tucano - Just when you think you have her figured out this little red vixen reminds you that she will not be tamed.
Tigermoth - More hot glue now than foam, twisted and evil <pick the quote>
Not far away from action:
Mini Dragonfly - there once was a heli called dragonfly, that when in the air would crucify, any dolt of a pilot, who couldn't really flyit, and go in by the boom to make you cry
RV4 - come back here - I'll nibble your kneecaps <yes she will fly again>
Zero - she's been a divine wind in my collection and she refuses to say die.
Cheers and beers mates.
