Thanks Mike.

My first venture into RC aircraft resulted in two beautiful planes, which represented over 250 hours of my life, being totalled in less than a minute each. Talk about stress and shock. That experience made me leave the hobby for 20 years.

I've crashed (totalled) two this time around. One due to radio failure (used radio). The other due to a bad clevis on the elevator servo. In both cases, I pulled my radio and engine out of the wreckage, calmly put them in my truck, and resumed flying a different plane.

Without ARFs, I wouldn't have come back. And the folks in this forum have been fantastic.
