Smallfry,

Got approx. 35 flights on my Escapade, but I have been flying it since Feb. (Backyard)
I am going out to the runway tomorrow to see if it's ready to go for U/L's and R/C. (Last I checked, it was still a little soft.)
If you would like, you can fly up here, it's not to far for you, if you come up early, and make it an all day fly. The field is just off Route 45.
I have trained a lot of people to fly, so it should be no problem helping you. I have an Alpha Trainer for that purpose if yours isn't ready.
Anytime after this coming week is good. Let me know.
