    All I can say is wow... I love the mentality you have going on there and it really seems you've got your head on straight and your eyes set on an AWESOME goal. I wish more people in the hobby would carry that mentality, bet hey, we're only human. I think so far your plans look pretty solid...

    It's flying great Gary. Have a few flights at this point. Seems to be right on with the CG and very willing to fly precision the way it is. Hope to get some more flights soon and begin tuning it for IMAC and get ready for the season. Was able to get the bling on my Yak today and grab some...

    How many years have you been in the hobby?

    I've come up on about 10 years now. My advice after this long? Always keep it fun. This is a hobby to enjoy, learn and grow friendships with. If it's not fun for you, stop doing it or find a way to make it fun! :D

    OKay here we are again! I was able to get into the shop again today and get a little more work done. I finished off all of the pushrods, connected all the servos and centered them. They seem to be very strong and look cool with the carbon ;) Next, I drilled the gear and installed it, I...

    Alright! Well I got into the shop today and got a little bit more work done. I went ahead and built all of my pushrods. Using Carbon rod and threaded ends I glued them into each other, taped them to keep from separating from each other. I'll let all of those set for 24 hours. Next I installed...

    From talking to my mom we seem to have a busy schedule. Our plans as of now consist of local contests both IMAC and Pattern. I do plan on going to the NATS for both of those as well. I was really looking forward to the XFC this year, but my cousin is getting married that week, so no go for...

    Hello everyone! I'm a day late on this, but with all the crazyness (Is that a word?) that's been going on, I found myself short on time yesterday. It's here now though! So today I will discuss spins. Like Snaps, I don't have a whole lot to say about spins. Spins are widely used in IMAC and...
