Wow. NICE! I really enjoy seeing how the hobby has evolved over time. You taken a ride in the full scale Mustang?

Old: Carl Goldberg Cub built in 99' but photo is from 03'. Magnum 91FS for power. I had four airplanes before the Cub but no pictures.

Most recent: The H9 F22 and GP F4 were done last year, 09'. An OS 55ax powers the Raptor and the F4 has a 91FX with a Jett tuned muffler.

Cheers.

Always fun looking back not only for the memories but also seeing the HUGE leaps forward in technology and performance.
