I got my first RC plane when I was in highschool. RTF, but I was too scared of crashing to really learn to fly. I grew up in the country and now have a place of my own with some land. Since HS, I’ve gotten a Mavic Pro (on the FT recommendation) and want to

I am an elderly modeler (76 yrs) whose interest in flying began in Grade School, when I built small rubber-powered free flight aircraft. How I wished to control the flight path of those models! The ability to control slightly larger models (.049 cu. in. displacement) happened a few years later, with primitive “escapement-controlled” rudders, which

Like many, life is busy. So when I get to fly (flitefest only for the last 2 years), I don’t want to have to jump thru a bunch of hoops to go fly a wing or multi-rotor if I get a day to get out and fly. I have a drone business that is mostly

Flying Models has always been a pasion of mine and has never been a problem and adding all these new rules is taking all the fun out of the hobby. and making it more of a hassle and I may quit flying. The goverment is always taking everything you enjoy and take the fun out

Fist Person View flying is the most exciting thing ever. I used to dream about these days when i was a kid just looking at all of my uncles balsa wood and gas engine models. And finally, it’s here!!!! And it doesn’t cost thousands of dollars to enjoy what i like to call, “all the

I have been flying model airplanes for about 70 years as a hobby and I enjoy the challenges of building and flying the model aircraft. I learned many skills participating in this hobby including; following instructions, improvising when necessary, how to make adjustments for good flights, using necessary tools. I hope to keep flying until

All that is needed is a reasonable weight limit for unregulated model aircraft. Potential danger is directly related to weight. You can’t realistically hurt anyone or cause measurable damage with most model aircraft outside of larger models. My suggestion is to create a reasonable weight limit (not 250 grams which is ridiculously conservative) which would

I’ve come to flying RC airplanes very late in life and must say it’s one of the best things I’ve done in my life. The amount of tremendous people I’ve met is staggering… in both Canada and the US. In Canada, MAAC has an incredible reputation for ensuring safety guidelines are followed and the club

I am a high schooler (in 9th grade) who was introduced to the hobby through your videos. My father is a pilot of small aircraft, and also was interested in model aircraft. His legacy of a balsa gasser impacted my developing interest. My research into the hobby through your channel and content, I was amazed

I am a retired male living on a fixed income. My fixed income limits the things I can do to enjoy myself.Being able to build and fly my own models has helped to maintain peace and tranquility to my life. I do most of my flying in a large open field ( with permission )
