I started flying radio control when I was 10 years old in rural NY. I didn’t have anyone to mentor me so I had to learn on my own. This was before pre-fabricated airplanes and electric flight, so I had to build my airplane out of balsa wood, and then after each “flight” fix them,

I just started flying this year, I didn’t know about any new regulations. I’m more than sad, that’ll mean I wont be able to fly anymore, I cant really afford everything like that. It will make it so much harder to do this. And I dont think I would be able to afford it, only
