Been modelling on and off for a year or so, but only really properly in the last 6 months when i threw away my Super Cub and embraced balsa! I've currently got a West Wings Toucan with a 90w motor, a Vmar Aero Subaru powered by a 250w motor and a dodgy scratch built Grasshopper i adapted from a 1940s free flight model. All my planes have Spektrum AR500 receivers and i've got a DX5e Tx.
Still fairly wet round the ears, but i've managed to handle things ok, but still crash a fair bit! Before i retired the cub i had that down to a fairly fine art though.
