For the piece of mind I have working with Buddy... the excellent customer service, and total product availability, $20 is most definitely worth the piece of mind.

Dave-

I like that Dave!!!

I am putting my R60F in the UFO...

So, The big brown truck shows up just as I was about to walk out the door to leave for work today... wouldn't you know it, my other engine shows up!!! Unable to wait, I opened that box expecting the natural aluminum NR Speed/13.... When I lifted that foam lid up and saw the black anodized case, I couldn't believe it!!!! WOW!!!!!

So I have a real conundrum here...

I have to decide which to build 1st! My Escape? or my UFO??? GAH!!!!!

I've been holding the Escape for so long now. I was just about to start it after my contest balsa showed up and I complete my Dirty Birdy... I was so amazed to the quality of the BlueJay kit I had to have that UFO!

I will finish my DB and worry about it then.

Jim- I want to try to get the UFO engine working like it ought... I think I might ask you to help me through the process again. I HAVE to learn how to do this!!!

My wife is telling me she is sick of red... All of my airplanes are red!

What's wrong with red? [X(]

Just one more... That's it... I promise!

I will do my best to replicate Joe Bridi's UFO colors. They really pop in the air!

A few more pics and then the monster that will be under the hood... the R60F Nova Rossi SE!!!!

SMT sent me enough power to shred the wing mid-flight!!!!

Brian,
I've gotta get one of these and definitely a NovaRossi to pull it.
Your pictures are like showing photos of a sizzling sirloin to a guy who hasn't eaten in a week.
Sure looks good.

Best Regards
JC

I don't always fly R/C...but when I do, I fly FASST. Fly well my friends.

My canopy came in from Don Carlson. You can really see the difference in the outline.

I have to admit, the stock canopy looks pretty slick on the UFO. But I want the true outline.

My servos came in as well. I hope the pictures are clear.
