Had fun, but can now understand why flying these things in the wind
is risky. We didn't have any
real close calls, but there were several times he took control of the
airplane as I had it in a
nosedive to the ground. I 'think' I could have pulled it out on my
own, but it was, after all, his
airplane!
Lot's of fun, learned that I'd best get a simulator before I smash up
my airplane. Looking at this
one, which already has my airplane and transmitter programmed therein:

Johnny, you weren't flying, and you won't be. You're playing with
model airplanes. When a relative of mine plays with his
radio-controlled model trains, he doesn't think he is a railroad
engineer.
Radio-controlled model trains?
