In the mid 70's, my first ARF was a all foam Cessna Cardinal powered with a OS.20. It was my first RC flyer and an easy 3 channel to fly. Not being aware fo any RC Clubs, I started learning to fly by myself at Whittier Narrows flying field. The first few landings were a little scarey at times. Later I joined a club but at that time flying was pretty easy. I sold the plane with the Heathkit Radio after 2 years of flying without a crash.

The plane didn't look like much, but it was a good stable flyer. It was so good it taught me how to fly.
