If you are just beginning, your choices are: Balsa = fly, crash, repair, repair, repair; fly, crash, repair, repair, repair and so on until you give up or learn.
Foam = fly, crash, dust it off, fly, crash, laugh, dust if off, fly, crash, laugh some more and so forth until you learn. Tough choice. Randy RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
