Hi folks. I'm new here. I've always wanted to get in to RC flying since I was a boy. There used to be a model flying club near where I grew up, and I used to go watch them fly for hours. But I couldn't never afford to buy all the kit to have my own one.
Anyway, I've been watching the FT channel for a while, and then discovered their downloadable plans. So I'm going to attempt to build either the Tiny Trainer, or the Simple Cub with my son.
Finding the foam board here in the UK seems tricky, but I found some in Hobbycraft which I've bought. But I've read it's a bit heavier than the FT board, so I'll need to research which motor to used instead of the recommended one. Actually, I need to do a lot of reading up on motors, batteries, esc's etc as it's all new to me
