Hi There

I have also been flying models of various types - ussually update the model due to unexpected happenings (hahahaha) - but found that just going down to the local field and stooging around without much purpose was boring. I went to visit a field where there are a lot of pattern fliers - compared to none at my field - and was very impressed with the grace and precision of the flying.

I started trying to put aerobatic manouvres into my stooging on Sundays and found that it was quite enjoyable alothough rather hap-hazard to start with!!!! Eventually I was forced into a new plane (as previous mentioned the plane suffered untimely demise) so I bought a cheapo "Scanner" low wing and used my old ASP52 motor and my old 4-channel radio.

I went down to the field where the guys were flying pattern and just asked for help - THAT WAS THE BIG STEP !!!
