When I'm not bashing the keyboard coding, my other hobby is building RC planes from foam board and flying them with my son.

I've built a couple of trainers already that we've been learning on. But today I started a new one that is still a trainer, but with landing gear, and a low wing.

I got into this by watching the Flitetest channel on YouTube, and they make getting into RC flying so easy.

Anyone else interested in RC?

My son wants me to build him a nitro engined car, so I might take that as an excuse to build a nitro engined plane too.

Nice. I'd like to try a helo too, but I need to learn to properly fly a plane first.

I'm flying copters (drones). I own one Yuneec Q500 and two Typhoon H and a modded Syma X8 I posted some pictures here at the forum a while ago.

I also own an unfinished Cessna O-2A Skymaster.

The Q500 will also get a military look sometimes in future, but at the moment I'm only working on the homepit to get it finished at least the next year. biggrin
