That's pretty cool... I'd probably enjoy toying with one if I had the money... unfortunately, I'd have to sell all my computer to afford one, and that's not going to happen, lol.

I've always wanted to do RC planes. Ever since I was a kid my dad would take me to his tennis games out at the college, and I'd always wander off to the front field to watch the local RC club people fly out there.

Nice! My husband has gotten into RC planes because it's (marginally) cheaper than renting/flying small real planes (he's an amateur pilot). He spent many hours last year creating a runway out in our pasture for his RC planes. He somehow managed to crash his plane into a huge cedar tree on our hill last saturday, so he has to re-Monocote the plane now.

Did not see any aerilons, that is why I thought they were 3 channel.

I went by a hobby store today and saw some cool trainer planes for $300, ready to fly out of the box.

I'm not sure how big the engine was, but the plane has 4 channels.

I'm saving up to get it.

Wahoo!

Wife and I went last year and we will be back this year. I went on a whim because I heard it mentioned on the radio but it was a blast. The little jets are the best because of the sound they make. You could get prop trainers there cheap also. ~ $150 ready to go. I thought about it but didn't get one.
