I certainly enjoyed my time with RC planes and cars.
Tower Hobbies was THE place to order on-line and in Dallas, Bobbye Hall's on Bryan street was mecca.
I learned on a Kaos trike with an OS Max 49 and Futaba radio.
Busted a lot of props trying to land ... never did get it smooth.
I have on-board 8mm film of crashing the thing into a tree.
The motor running the film camera interfered with the reciever reception ... boom!
Egrits and hawks were a lot of fun to mess with ... buzzing cattle was fun, too.
Remind me to tell the story about a Sweet 16, 1 gallon gas can. electric service wires and how I almost went to the pokey for filing a false police report.
Quit flying because our "airport" was gobbled up by the local school district.
