Hi there everyone just wanted to say hello.
I have always been into moplanes from an early age, I eventually got int RC flying back in the 80s. Unfortunately, around the same time I got divorced so my flying and model building got side lined. About 2 years ago I bought my son a drone for Christmas and it sparked my interest again.
Since then I have built a number of Flite test models all from scratch I might add, I have also converted some of my balsa models from nitro to electric. At the start of this month, I passed my solo certificate at my new club, so now I am permitted to fly solo. Unfortunately the following day we went into a second lock down in the UK so I haven't been able to fly since
My most recent build is the FT Sportster (see attachment) which is not quite finished yet, ran out of red Acrylic paint and needs a windscreen
I am also starting construction of the FT Edge, looking forward to the challenge and new building skills.
I will add a picture of my FT Spitfire as an attachment as well, that one flew really well and looked great in the sky.
Looking forward to the FT simple stick plans becoming available to download, and contibuting to the forum in the future.
Regards Ian
