hi, my name is Pat. i'm from central maine. just starting out in this hobby. been wanting to do so since i was 20, and i'm 56 now. it's about time!
i have purchased a sport cub s, and plan to learn on that first for a few months. i have also purchased a sport cub. that will be my next step up for a while. i will eventually put floats on it and fly it out at the lake. sounds like fun. also purchased realflight basic simulator and have been using that for about a month.
i won't fly an actual plane until may when it warms up. in the meantime, more sim time. also trying to learn my dx6i, as it will be used for both planes. i am also waiting shipment on two used hp server power supplies, the dps-600pb b. i will be making my own 1150 watt, 24 volt power supply. thanks for the write up and video, Tony! i feel very comfortable with this type of thing, so am looking forward to a fun project.
well, enough about me. nice to meet you all.
