    See we have even more in common.

    I have an attic full of aircraft. I never flew copters, but I have about 1/2 dozen RC aircraft.

    Goldberg SuperChipmunk - 90
    Goldberg Eagle II - 60cc
    Goldberg SkyTiger - Called for 60 but I carbon fibered the spar, and sheeted the wing and went with 90
    Goldberg PITTS - - 45 but put a 75 on it.

    ARF - P51D - 60 put a 90 on it.
    ARF - F4U Corsair. 60 put a 90 on it.

    I also have 4-5 older Skyport 6 channel Futaba radios.

    I have not flown in about 10 years though

    Later,
