Been flying for almost 30 years now and have started to try electrics. Bought a couple of nice planes from the local stores and have been flying them for about 5 years now with only minor damage to the nose of an edf F-18 Hornet. The other is a T-33 shooting star and I have agreat time with them. Then I saw Josh Bixler on youtube and found his Foamboard free plans......... LOL, looked over them all then I decided on the FT-22 but modified for a 70MM edf. Looked amazing when it was done and flew like a dream right from the the first hand launch. Then the nieces and nefews came over and when they saw it next to the store bought Hornet that is painted in tiger squad garb, they said said does that thing even fly?
So I'm buzzing around the sky and I said this plane flies smoother and easier than any of the store bought planes, SEE! and thats when I took my fingers off the sticks to show them just how nice it flies and tracks through the sky........ What they saw was how nice it flies straight and smooth into a guy wire for my ham radio antenna then drops 35 feet in a heap.
So I repeat "FLY THE PLANE!!!"
