After almost 40 years I'm getting back into RC. To let you know how long I was gone, my last radio set was a "tuned reed 12 channel". The new stuff is fantastic. I'm running electrics, Super Cub, Slow Stick and a vapor.
I managed to crunch my sst last week, broke the gear shaft. I'm converting it to brushless so it will be a new experiance. Guys at the club here in Walla Walla are fantastic. I brough my cub out in the box to ask if there were anythings I might want to know about putting it together. 30 minutes later they had it all together and I was flying. These slow flyers just facinate me. Anything anyone can share is appreciated.

Welcome back,

Sounds like you are having a good time. I was only away from it for 25 years. You got back into it the right way with the Supercub and a Slowstick. I started by converting a chuck glider to rc and I am finishing a capricorn right now. Have fun and good luck.
