thanks!
problem is...we live in windsor, better known as the city of winds-or storms, and i fly my planes only on those rare occasions when there is no wind. like the day of these videos. oh, well...we may try simulator instead. |

thanks.
dealing with children or youngsters is so much fun! they have that spark, that amazing quality of seeing life with a wonderful approach, that makes you feel young again. and watching them how fast they learn. i think that, if every child is guided properly, is a genius in the making. regards |

Do you have anywhere to slope soar, even if it's not a big hill? Slope soaring planes can have higher performance than any powered plane. I think a guy needs both power planes and slopers so he can fly no matter what the wind is doing. Kind of like golf clubs, one for every situation.

keep it simple
my goal is to have fun. as you can see, i try to build simple, practical planes, just to have fun.
still, even without any intention to get performance, am getting 10 minutes from a 160 turnigy cell with my snowflake, climbing at 40% throttle, just buzzing around, doing touch and goes, catching, or landing dead stick. if you follow my blog, you will see that i tried performance (competition indoor free flight), but that was before i decided to live a more relaxed life. but it is each 1 on his own. enjoy. |

computers are a mysteryQuote:
to be honest, sometimes i don't know what's happening, and why things don't work the same even if i do the same steps. computers do strange things unexpectedly. just look at the yellow book for nerds, that keeps telling you about it. |
