    6:30 my only defence here is that foam and hotglue is cheap enough for me to be willing to put tons of hours in rather than spending 1K on a factory made airliner. prop planes are like 60 bucks, airliners are atleast 600 and usually 5x bigger

    There's at least eight sub-types within the glider community: Old timers, slope racers, self-launching motorsailers, giant-scalers, the competition thermal duration pilots, DLG discus launchers... raw 2-channel beginners... And we all kid about each other as well, but it's good-natured because you have to stay unified against all the gas-powered thugs that don't want you there at the field... We are nice to just one gas-powered guy, the tow plane operator.

    I didn't expect the John Woodfield clip, his x-wing canard is a very unique design. His channel got me into balsa and I've really enjoyed building with it. Also, I am the ELRS guy. Some great PWM ELRS RXs under 2 grams for the Willy Nillies kits, and for less than $15.

While some of the HK offerings since then have looked enticing I can’t bring myself to buy something where I’ll pay twice it’s cost in shipping and exactly 0.0% spare parts were actually produced to support it.

    I have had this r/c f86 saber since I was when I was in middle school (im a senior now in hs). I loved it and took good care of it, it was a ARF from free wing , but I painted it (did a good job too) I still feel really guilty about what I did to its intake a few times when I was going through *that time* in the process of maturity… that was just wrong.

All just to do no sailplane stuff except wind whooosh noises when i drop down form altitude only to rocket back up pulling 200 amps on my 150A ESC."
