I think that's main thing, is to not force him to do it. We actually just got back from the field, and lunch with the guys, @emtp275 took a few pics of him hold his Heli.

Well if he takes to that Heli Mr. Herb gave him for xmas, i'm slashing his tires on the Lexus. I guess not much difference than the quads he got from Nall last year. Buggy you say, nitro? If my knife isn't to dull from slashing Herbs tires, I'll cut you.

Look very close at the photo of Their mother and grandmother and two youngest boys in the upper right corner the oldest son is flying one of his electrics that we repaired and test flew and trimmed for him so he could fly the kageebas out of it when he got back home on the ranch in Hay Springs Neb.

I like 'em "BIG"!
All children follow the beat of their own drum it seems. They grow up to love to fish, love to hunt, golf or four wheelin'. Something that sets them apart from everyone else. I have friends that do the hunting, fishing, golfing and wheelin' thing. They shake their head at me and go...."WHY"? Cuz flying has been a passion for me since I was smaller than a jack rabbit. My son was also my "little man". He did everything I did. We went four wheelin' together, built and rode motorcycles, motors for trucks. We even did the hunting thing. I think if it is in the blood, it stays there. When my son and I first got into this hobby, his passion was so huge he just had to do it too. He saved his own money, and built literally on the garage floor his very first plane from a box. I tipped him from time to time, but he has always been a challenge taker. That and...anything Dad could do, he was going to do better. I applaud him for that. His first plane was not the "straightest" as you all can imagine, but it did in fact fly very well. I think from that point on, he was hooked. Guide them, direct them, give them the tools and they will build you a whole new world. But it is so important to let them "be"...who they are going to be.
