Hi Scott,

If you are in to competitive fast electrics then take a look at the Model Power Boat Association site: **LINK**

Hi Scott. I'm in a similar position.

I've been flying and building aeroplanes for some time but after a less than stellar start to 2014 (nothing disastrous but some annoying failures) I decided to go back to model sailing boats. I built and raced a 1 metre yacht about 20 years ago and I'm now building a 1/24 scale Thames sailing barge. I haven't up dated my build log for a while but it is progressing in fits and starts as I learn how to do jobs through error and trial Error seems to be predominant but eventual success seems to happen. My build log is in the scratch build section if you're interested. I really must up date it soon.

I've still got the flying bug I think because I've just acquired another heli. A V912 brushless one but still fixed pitch rotor – I haven't dared to venture into a collective pitch aerobatic job and I doubt I will. It's my birthday tomorrow and my 3/4 century reactions aren't up to it

Paul, if you haven't already, get a V911. They're cheap as chips, weigh around 30 grams, and great fun to fly indoors. The V912 is similar but a lot bigger/heavier and, hopefully, will cope with wind outside. I've done a mini test flight in our lounge but it's an old cottage with low beamed ceilings and small rooms so it's bit too restricted. I fly the V911 in there quite happily, though.

I have a little quad, but it's definitely a no wind or indoor job. No danger of its affecting an airliner
