Re: [RCSE] First Sailplane

Mine is easy to remember as well since I just started back in 1977.  It was 
one of the original Craft Air Drifter's with the 72" Wing.  I actually had 
ordered the Windrifter before getting the Drifter done.  It was a good move 
on my part since I had the Drifter destroyed already before the Windrifter 
reached my door.  I decided to go ahead and order the Sailaire shortly there 
after.  It has just gotten better every hear thereafter.

See Ya,

I remember mine since I just started a few years ago. An EPP Highlander as 
often recommended on this list. It is 39 ounces with standard radio gear in 
it, and by golly it thermals quite nicely. I used it to finish all my LSF I 
tasks.

Now that I am onto my LSF II tasks I have graduated to a 3M Marauder. I 
must agree with those that say "bigger flies better" cause I sure love it!

How many can remember their very first R/C sailplane? Mine was one of the

another aircraft while a newbie flew my Oly, bad idea...
