How long have you been flying:  "I've been flying about 4 years"

 
What channel do you commonly use: 39, 41 & 48
 
Instructor: YES  "I like to tech people to fly"
 

Do you have any advice for someone learning to fly R/C: If at all possible, learn from an instructor.  Getting an instructor gives you the ability to ask questions and to get their knowable advice.  An instructor will help you build, set-up and ready your plane for flight.  Also, the use of flight simulators are great. 

 

What plane would you recommend for the new comer to R/C:  The Hobbico NexSTAR 46.  This RTF (ready to fly) model is ready to fly in about 30 mins.  It is paced with everything you need plus the NexStar edition of Real Flight. 

 
What radio system do you use: Fatuba
 

What do you like about this hobby:  "I like building and flying."

 

How do you feel about ARF's:  "There is a place for ARF's.  It gets people flying."
