New to the E-flight line...
...and the board. After taking a hiatus due to career and other, Iam getting back into the hobby. Iused to build and fly glow planes, but now Igoing all E. Selling off my glow engines (gasp). Three winter projects include an ARFfoamy 55" trainer, a 48" balsa trainer, and an E conversion of a 57" Richmodel Long EZ. Should keep me busy until the snow clears here in Denver. My skills are quite corroded and Iam looking forward to coming up to speed in the world of e-flight. Cheers, Bob.

RE: New to the E-flight line...
Welcome to the dark side. I too am a LONG time glow person. Yet I find the ease of e flight so much fun. I plug in a battery, toss, fly, land, no clean up.
If you have a small plane ready to go, when you get a nice day here and there, you can do some front yard flying.

Where in Denver? I'm in Parker and just got back into flying after a 20 year layoff. Picked up the Apprentice from eFlite and never looked back. I fly out at MileHighRC and you are welcome to come out to the field as my guest one day if you like. Quite a few electric guys that fly there along with some very skilled glow pilots.
