Default My first flights

Hi:

After downloading the plans for a FT Simple Cub and building the model with 5mm foam board, I hit the road. Not bad for a guy that hadn't flown BUT had many hours using a RC sim (CRRCSim).

The pane had some bad landings but nothing serious, I could fix it in the field using adhesive tape and it kept on flying.
