    No problem Aaron. I really miss this hobby a lot. And wish I had more time in my life to actually get out and actually fly. I'm a construction contractor and about 9- 10 months out of the year I stay extremely busy. With the spare time I have I'm usually in the gym or riding my bikes when the...

    Hi Aaron. I agree with what Alan said above me. I can't speak for the XL addiction , as I only have the original small one. What he said about it having a " different character " ...is spot on! They are very fun flying little planes. I'm sure the XL will move slightly slower then the smaller...

    If I remember right , I think those ink lines where when I was playing with the CG. I always liked flying my planes with a pretty neutral CG. Not nose or tail heavy. I had to run my Dual RX batteries up front along with the fuel tank as well , because the BME 58 was so dang light. I also ran...

    Hey guys! Just wanted to check in and see how things are going? Chris did you trade the Slick for something else? To Bipenut? Whatever the case , I sure hope one of you post some pics of her all built back up and ready to fly. Bipe....what is your motor choice? Electronics and so forth...

    Right on! Very easy plane to get used to. This thing even at 19+lbs flew extremely light on the wings. I told Chris that it could of actually had another 1 - 2lbs and probably still feel really good. I had a BME 58cc on the front and had to move some stuff forward just to get it to balance...

    Hey guys! Have fun with the slick...I know I had a lot of awesome flights with that thing. Was kinda bummed I had to sell it , but I'm glad to see it go to a good home and be built and flown the way it should be. I'm looking forward to picking up one of those 79" Slicks sometime this summer...

    That is totally up in the air right now. Have a lot of irons in the fire with getting my motovan and bike ready for this season. Both should be ready to go within the next couple weeks , then I'll start figuring out what planes I can get going again and what spare time I have. Man , I'll tell...

    OK....I guess I'll start with saying hello to everyone here. I started flying back in 2006 and kept flying up until about 2011 - 2012 , and have been out of it since then. I had a room mate that him and his dad flew for over 20yrs that got me into the flying hobby. I've raced and ridden...

    Azhar Osmanbhoy owner of Aztech Aeromodels Tribute

    Hey thanks Bipe! Yeah he told me about you and this place. Such a bummer hearing about Azhar. Kind of still in shock a little. As far as me getting back into , I'm not sure how much I can have the time for as work and riding bikes during the spring , summer and fall take up most of my time. I...

    Azhar Osmanbhoy owner of Aztech Aeromodels Tribute

    I've been out of flying for around 5yrs now and am just now getting back into it. Was referred over to this site just as of today , and then saw this thread. I had no idea that Azhar had passed away. Damn! I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with him a few times at the Molalla shootout...
