    I know what you mean about the uncertainty of there first flight I have many stories that I could tell about my past experiences and especially those that involved teaching my son Donovan to fly.

    I bought a "cricket" RC helicopter back in ......mid 80's,..it was a challenge to get that thing to hover and it was a fixed pitch rotar system so throttle controlled altitude,..I ended up putting gyro's on the tail

    I am trying to figure out how to post pictures on here that I received thru my email but for the life of me i cant get them to transfer. I have them saved in my windows picture viewer and when I copy/paste all I get is the file number. Any suggestions from you computer gurus out there.
