If you had told me a year ago that I would be writing a blog here today, I would have had you instantly certified! However, try as we might, times change and here I am!
As you see, this is the first post and is a bit of a sort of ‘rambling filler’ to put up something while I get all the technical issues of this dasterly system sorted out. I apologise for the lack of content at the moment but that will be rectified as soon as possible
I have finally been motivated to write this by frustration at the changes in the hobby of radio controlled airplane flying, and the lack of sensible information for the newcomer.
The march of modern technology has brought us the ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) foamy that may be bought from all sorts of unrelated stores. Modern marketing thrusts them at the unsuspecting public with not the slightest sign of any technical advice or backup, to say nothing of marginal or no safety advice.
Electric power has brought its own extra challenges made much worse by the speed of change. Cutting edge today may well be old hat tomorrow, and some of the ‘cast in stone’ advice out there is already years old!
And then we have the modern trend to 3D flying! (Is it flying??) People tell me it is flying, but I have my doubts…
Anyway, thats all for now, see you soon.
