Default ok it is about time!

Just wanted to give a new post a try, I soloed over 13 years ago and hadn't flown for 10 years until recently! Wow what a feeling to be back. I have been building up to flying again. And have been tinkering allot around here lately. Any how. It was alomost as I never left. so You could almost say I have soloed again! Of coarse I started out with a 3 channel Kadet... but find I will be moving up soon. So this is to anyone "New Again" It sure is nice to be back and If I can do it on my first flight you guys can too!

have a nice flight!

Rob, welcome back to the wonderful world of RC flight. Now all we need to do it get you outfitted with the following: mini locust for .061, locust for .15, and a viper for .25 size combat!

See ya at the field.

Hi there:

I am back into hobby after almost 20 YEARS. Don't ask "why", because I heard enough of this question from my wife already!!!

It just feels so good to be back!!! New materials, new approaches, but it’s THE SAME FUN as it used to be!!!!!!!

ekrcflyer,
Nope won't ask why... I know why! And your right about the materials and methods of construction. Sure have improved allot.. Laser cut parts sure are nice. Much better than the old DIE crush parts. Though allot are not laser cut yet but Allot more will be as time goes on.

great to be back!!!!
