I guess you can say I'm starting off again. I was in to this about 20 years ago. I started off with a foam single wing plane with a 15 or 18 size engine. My next plane was a balsa bi-plane with a slighlty larger motor and 1 or 2 more servo's
The reason I stopped back than is because of cash flow. I was in school and heavy in sports. After school, I concentrated my efforts and money on drag racing. I bought and built a 2001 Camaro SS. I built that beast to live on the street yet drive to the track and bust out consistant 10 second 1/4 mile time slips on straight chevy engine with no power adder. I have never lost the interest in the rc hobby, I have a couple crazy trucks, but the want to get back in the air never died. My co-worker told me about a personal sell-off of his "inventory". So I took advantage. For a very good price, I picked up this bi-plane, 2 extra props, manuals, blue-prints, charger, and all electronics PLUS a 60 series heli with extra rotor, starter, training platform, manuals, and all electronics. I have no intention of geting back in the air with either of these birds. I am looking for a cheap used bird to get off the ground, and also a simulator for the computer. My idea is to get these 2 birds ready so that when I am ready they are good to go. Here is a pic
