Tim, I'm giving some serious thought to getting one of these 'kit' planes and trying to build one


myself. Motors and all the electronics have to be added, but I think much of it can be found used. I


met a guy today who had a whole car full of airplane stuff. He's into jets. Very cool. He was flying


one of these. Fast. Very maneuverable. Electric motor powered.




The RC stuff out there today is unreal.




Whoops...this is the kit plane I mentioned:

I have a brand new string plane like that still in the box. I't about 20 yrs old. Maybe I ought to dig it out and spin it up. Yeah. That's just 10 bucks more than I gave for my Cox powered nitro-burners.
