Just wanted to say hello! I am fairly new to RC electric flying. I started about 2 months ago with the "Champ". Man was I hooked! Just went out and bought the SC and I love it! Right now it is too windy out but I can't wait for the wind to break! I am taking this time to personalize the SC with a new paint job, etc. I know I will probably bang it up some until I am much better at flying, but I figure it good practice so that when I decide to purchase another, I will know how to paint it properly the first time. I am also getting plenty of repair experience...lol!

Hello and welcome yea I hate those windy days too, but learning to fly in some wind is a good challange,I know the manual says 7 mph or less but after you get better, you can go with a little more wind, I flew my cub in winds up to 15 mph

Hey kenninny. I herebya! I figure when I put my SC down and she lifts up or blows away, it isnt a good day for me to fly. Lol.....I want to learn to fly in diff conditions. I didn't know I could try in 15 miles or less. TY! I won't shy next time.
