    Thought I would share this info..

    This plane so far has been awesome and I'm very excited.

    This is the first time I have ever designed a plane I really dont have much building knowledge cause someone else usually builds my planes cause I'm unable to do so cause of the disability.. not to mention arthoritis has taken over my hands and sometimes I cant even hold a cup.
    So to be able to draw this bird out, cut it, build it myself, it is just so special to me.. I can't wait to see someone else fly one :D I have been able to see and do some awesome stuff in this hobby and this rates up to the top of the list!! Just wanted to share that with the Phlat family!!

    lucky, man i hear ya on the arthritis...after being burned, hit by cars, breking bones, heart attacks....and age, i can really feel the winder cold coming, as my body tells me so, lols. as far as your disability, well that don't look to stop you from the rc flying, or building models. and if it does...i know why your "lucky" with people around you that love you so. i do look forward to seeing updates ...your model looks great...peace, randy.

    Man I got to catch up on my posting....sorry guys. I have actually been getting alot of sleep lately(not tonight) which is rare.

    We have been flying the yak, and the results have been awesome!! My Yak came in at 6.03 and Tims came in at 5.25 onuces.

    We tested Tims with a E-flite 250 and it was great! I gonna build me another one and put a 250 on it and hopefully a little less glue :) I'm not the best with glue :x

    Here are a couple pics at our last indoor... Attached files [​IMG] [​IMG]
