No real blog entry here just kinda inform you who I am an some projects i am working on... I recently started back in RC airplanes, something I did as a kid. It has changed so much an as always I dove in full throttle to learn as much as I can.
Current planes
Nexstar EP
flyzone Micro cub
Flyzone j3 cub
Multiplex dogfighter
FVP Raptor (2m)
Predator UAV (98")

Soon will add
Corsairs
F-22 raptor
An another UAV
plane
A 3d foam


Right now I am currently trying to figure out the FVP an drone part of this hobby an the first thing I have noticed wow its costing lots of money to get the right stuff..

I will add entries as i build this UAV an other projects as I get to them...

Later,
Jo
