Hi Clarky, Cheers for the words! Maybe it's a sign of the times! We all need a divertion from work etc, I know I certainly do! And it's better for you than going to the pub too often, although I enjoy that too! Hello rodderstotter, welcome to the world of fun, I hope. Sorry to hear about you finding a few snobs in the clubs, I was taught by a rather nice chap who saw me with my electric glider out on Wormwood scrubs. That was a nice aircraft, ARTF, with a 600 size motor and Ni-Cad Batteries, That was what I cut my teeth on. The next aircraft was a high wing trainer, such as Danny mentioned, with a .40 size glow engine. Great fun to build, ARTF again, but this really helped me get my hand in, not too expensive either! After that...the list grows exponentially, like my age! Of course I do recommend a Flight sim such as Reflex XTR etc, A good way to get our sixth sense honed. Best of luck!
