My name is Mike Berry, and my friend in on this is Matt Shweagier. Our friend Nate is tring to get in the hobby is financily impared due to his VERY OVERPROTECTIVE parents that won let him get a job untill he finneshes school. I have given him my electronics for a j3 cub so he could put them in an airplane if he get one, well apperently its harder that he though to save up without a job. Matt got him an old lazy bee for free we tryed to convert to electric and ended up not so flyable. So.....I was hoping smoeone had an old parkflyer suitable for a begginer that they would be kind enough to donate to him, mabey like a wingo or some oter cheap slowflyer, or slowstick ,pico stick? We were letting him buddy box up with us and the buddy box quit working so we cant do that anymore. I would buy him a plane but it took me 2 weeks to get a discounted gws plane so I cant afford to get him one, otherwise I would. I just feel bad for him because he can only watch, and he cant do anything about his money situation. But all three of us would be so gratefull if someone can help him out, we were going to put it together for him and train him to fly and build/ repair and get him ready to get out and fly instead of just watch. If you are willingto help, pleas call me at 828-268-5062, ask for mike, or [email protected] or pm me, and thanx in advance. Mike and Matt.

Well, I have helped him out as much asI can and all were asking for is a little help, not a 1000 or even 100 dollar plane or even electronics, just an old used still flying condition beginners plane, I guess nobody else has ever been helped out when moneys hard, ans also sorry SPICEDCRAB for the remark, however yours was quite rude too. but please, anyone willing to help, your kindness is definatly appreciated. I just feel bad for this kid because nobody helps him very often and he is allways willing to sit and hold drying parts or getting tools, he is a great helper when you need him, so we are trying to "say thank you" by trying to get him a plane. SORRY IF THIS POST MAKES ANYBODY ELSE MAD!!!

Mike,
Read your post early this A.M, I don't have any planes availible, but have all kinds of PZ electronis, Tx'x,Rx's,servos, batteries, chargers,etc., was going to gather up and sell, but if your friend can find a use for them, PM me and I'll give you a list of what I have, and ship it to you.
Been there, way back when, got helping hand from someone, so I guess it's my turn to help out.

I am glad to see you guys are able to help him out with some of the old stuff lying around. That is an excellent way to get another person started in our cool hobby! With out people like you all, me and my buddies wouldnt be flying right now in Iraq. Im sure some of you have seen operation r/c in the general discussion... same deal. So, I say "Thank you all for helping amdhotprocessor."
