You and me both! I sold some stuff to fund a new project, which included selling my radio and receivers. I thought the season was done but it got warm again, and I'm going nuts looking at stuff on the wall and trying to find things to work on. Hopefully I'll feel better when I get my new plane next week
Joe, you sold the Venus II?
Yes, it is bittersweet. I miss the plane already, but am getting something of a higher caliber ([link=http://www.espritmodel.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=11493]Sebart Wind[/link]). I actually think they look kind of similar but people seem to snap at me when I put the two in the same sentence[8D]
It sounds like the VII is working well for it's new owner, and that makes me happy =) Really a great plane - docile yet very capable.
I think a backup radio sounds like a good idea. Airtronics is making it pretty easy with an 8ch selling for $150. It's just not high enough on the priority list with the new project in action.
