I guess its just a wish that probably could never happen and in reality there are common things among brands or item types. Guess it just takes a while to figure out the jargon. Went to hobby city like some suggested and saw some gas engines around 200 dollars. Weighs like 5 pounds so its for large planes that i may want to get into in the future. Cheaper gas but at the wieght of the engine alone and added plane the tank is surely bigger and will cost you about as much as glow. Iguess i just gotta keep the frustration down until i fly and itll be all worth it. Hmm lets see there are about 3 fields in the area so know its about time to think which ones to join. Maybe ill go this weekend and see if anyones got a prop reamer so i can get the eninge started up for the first time. From what i hear this hobby is known for people helpin newcomers out.

I don't know where you are at in GA, but last fall, I went out and visited my son in Savanaha (sp?), and we went out to the local field. The guys were falling over their selves trying to help. A great group of guys. I'm sure you will find the same at any, or all the three fields/clubs in your area. Check them all out. You may find that you like them all. In todays world, it is hard sometimes to find one club near you, and the fact that you have three indicates the hobby is alive and well in your area. Join and contribuite to the clubs and you'll have friends for years to come.
