Greetings all,
I am Edward I am from Webster, Ma. and am looking to get into R/C Electric Airplane. Was hoping to find people near me to visit and learn from.
I do not own any equipment as of yet but am strongly concidering the following.
Radio: Futaba 7CA or 9CA (If I can find it cheap enough)
Planes: Mountain Models Magpie, will take time to build so might also get a GWS Slow Stick 300 or 400.
Not quite sure what all else I need to get going after those items.

It is 20 min from Worcester, And the Place your thinking of I believe is in Auburn called Hobbytime stopped in yesterday their selection in store is slim but can order stuff they deal mostly with One model supplyer I forget, and mostly JR radios they do not carry the Futabas any more mentioned something about Futaba going to the dark side LOL.
They gave me a Contact for Central Mass R/C Modlers but he is no longer at the phone number I got. I also tried to contack a person in my town that was listed under Yankee Flyers Club but no return call as of yet.
