That was soooo cool.  I wonder how money he has in that.  Or how much he spends on a single flight!

Take a look at this one: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=8790857 for the thread

Every piece hand made by Harald except the engines and radios.

Quick video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2xXdKyUKDs

Not a beginner project but gives some an idea of what their future could be??

Speaking of video and "What the future could be", I got an email from an old high school friend last week titled, "The Future of RC Planes?"

He said, "My brother sent this to me and I thought you would enjoy it"

He sent me a copy of a video that  I shot  for RCU

Very cool. It's rare for something you put out there to come back like that.

You're evidently doing something right! I've seen your flying in video, excellent work all around.

Since we have made the move to put more of RCU's video content on YouTube this is starting to happen more often. It happened to Marc a couple of weeks ago, and it happened to me this morning.

I agree!!! I've edited, produced and directed TV shows (no big deal, just a job) that according to Nielsens reached around a half billion households (low estimate) in my career and I've never had a random "What goes around, comes around," happen to me.

So enjoy the day in the sun, and continue enjoying days in the sun and giving back, because that's why it comes back!


Edited for grammar and clarity.
