30 Year Old Kid

It’s been non-stop toys since my birthday. As mentioned in a previous post, I received a airsoft spring bb gun and the Nintendo DS Lite. I’ve been playing with both items until recently when I discovered Stikfas thanks to Ton and the Air Hog Aero Ace R/C plane. This past week was spent searching for my blue ninja Stikfas action figure. It’s sitting on top of one of my work monitors in a real cool pose. The next day after purchasing the Stikfas guy, I read on Digg.com that there’s this cheap little plane that people’s been raving about. It’s nearly indestructable when it crashes plus most pros love flying it. On that very night I skipped working out and went to 2 Toys R Us (I only went to Toys R Us because I still had a 10$ credit there). It was the last bi-plane left at TRU.

I finally got to truly fly earlier Friday evening in an empty parking lot. It was difficult at first to keep it in the air, but when I got the hang of it, I was able to maintain flight for about 5 minute at a time. When I got home, I proceeded to pull the throttle spring out and went out to Radio Shack and bought some diodes so I can make the plane be able to turn without engaging the throttle. Both mod instructions was given in detail on the RC Groups forum. Now my plane is perfect! Can’t wait to fly it this weekend. Maybe I might take a video or even some pictures. :-) It’s like my childhood all over again!
