Hi my name is John and I started into this RC thing back in the early 60's and I still don't know anything [&:] A friend of mine and I took 2 years to build a B25 Gul wing Mitchel Bomber, we flew it 4 times and than a glitch in the remote caused it to fly away with a full tank of gas
been playing with this hobby ever since and love to make things better or mods to make it faster or better................just wish it would work every now and then.........lol
I have a lot of respect for Eddy because of his passion and knowledge of this Hobby.................good luck to all.
Brother..I know the Horror/Helplessnes you must have felt when the Bomber fly away. 30 yaers ago, as a Kid, I built a 2 stage Nike X , Estes model rocket. That sucker was 4 feet tall. My buddy and I launched it in a Baseball diamond. Lol.
How Stupid were we? Well,.. we were in the Flite path of a Regional Airport, less than a Mile from the end of the runway. We Honestly had NO idea the rocket could go THAT high!!!! ....Long story short, we didnt shoot down a Passenger Jet, But the local Cops were cruising around for a couple days looking for us.....To this day, I remember the Horror I felt, and the Look on my Buddies face, as that Rocket flew towards the plane and wizzed past it. [X(]
So...Pardon me if I'm LMAO right now. Im laughin With you not At ya!
P.S. We never Did find that rocket.....
