Well if it's any bit of a boost.......I taught myself to fly about 10 months ago... ;D
Once you go 4 channel they all fly the same....esp if sim is in your hand a lot.

It's huge! Looks as powerful as the motor in the 1971 Super Beetle I had.

Well I am finally getting around to starting this build up. I still need to buy 8 servos for it. Roughly the servos are 115.00 a piece OUCH! So I am trying to get a deal from a guy online on a set of 8 at a better price. I am hoping for 80-85 a piece and no more....holy crap...$1000 for servo's otherwise. I am also thinking of putting my sullivan sky writer in it as well. I have the pump, tank and lines...just lacked a plane big enough in the past....fixed! I also decided to keep the GT80 and use it in this plane for a few flights and put it on the MONSTER super cub I plan to buy next 12 foot ws. I plan to get a hold of a DA-100 for this after a few successful flights with the 80. I really want to go to IMAC competitions and 2 pals are planning on the same. EXTREME 3D is my goal and this plane is the ticket to that. Kevin

ailerons, rudder, elevator. Thats all. (I'm new to this...) I'm trying to imagine how 8 servos are required for throttle, ailerons, rudder and elevator. I can image how 5, maybe 6 of them are used, but not 8. Please explain.
