I Think Ineed to come clean about my intentions here,
Iam working with some inner city children that do not have the chance to do many things in life. A friend of mine got me hooked up with a group of children that range from 9 to 17 years Thru a Church in a pretty rough area of the City ( Philly ). Ihad grown up in the same area until Iwas placed in a home for kidsandthen Foster care so Ican Identify with them and they also respect me since Iwas once one them ,Lets just say I want to teach these kids to work hard and reach for the moon and that they do not need to keep the "cycle" going. I asked them to come up with some ideas and that we would vote on what idea we would pursue, Well RC Planes won hands down. Ipromised them as long as no one got into trouble and would be willing to work on this Iwould out of my own pocket help with this project. They had found a few planes om "YOUTUBE" (on my own computer)and they had picked out one. I am not looking for hands outs or anything like that. Ijust want to honor my word with them. I way back in the mid 70's played with some Gas powered planes like the Cox Cub that was teather to a simple hand line. I also have played with a bunch of RCcars. Ihad told the children that Idid in fact have a Transmitter and Receiver and a fewServosthat was given to me that we could try. That is why Iwanted to make the plane out of styro foam. These children could never afford to buy a Kit and Ican not afford to buy each one a kit myself. So What I am looking for is advice THATISALL. I swear. I have been looking at some of the kits and links but it reallity these kids could not nor would they spend the money on a kit when that money would be better used with their families.
So Please forgive me on not stating my intentions in the begining. My Kids would freak out if they knew that I was talking about them so please lets not make a fuss about it. Ijust want to keep my word and if we fail well at least we tried and we will continue to work until we get the plane in the air. That is our mission. So once again please forgive me if Ido ask some dumb questions.
