Do not have Johnny's address but this is the JR Module, not an after market
item. Gaurentee is the same, the one thing I found out today talking to
John Diniz is that they must have left out a small plastic screwdriver to
change channels, I will go to Radio Shack and get something suitable.

Of course he could do that at the FRU and surprise us all.

We have been run 2 classes, Speed 400 Open and unlimited, 7 cell Nicad /

weather, but typically runs between 8 and 10 minutes after shut off.
The dog racing training industry uses long shaft starter motors to pull
fake rabbits along. Some of the suppliers modify the Ford long shaft for
ball bearings with a cheaper and not as substantial modification as the

I advise caution when teaching your children. Is quickly building their
"thumb" skills really a good thing? I wonder.
You see many kids will have "wonder" thumbs. I know mine did. But, while
they can pickup the flying skills astoundingly quickly; the mental skills
take much longer to develop.

Typical to not listen to what dad says. Ask Jim McCarthy about that. :-)
Not much different then us mortals. We learn to fly then learn to read
air. The second part seems to be the toughest.

You might consider a foammy like a zagi, it will get him in the air which is
a required skill builder, and the amount of beating those can take is
amazing. So he can let his friends fly it without you cringing, even if it

So the general consensus is that I should forget about teaching thermal

I say get him into the full class if that's what it takes to get him
interested and hold his interest. He's a smart kid and has seen what the
big "kids" fly.

In my experience its more important to keep his interest than to worry
about how well he thermals. If he has the basics back off on the teaching
and concentrate on making sure he has fun. If the full house ship will
