Received from Tower Hobbies last week the Top Flite Nobler... it is beautiful! and best of all; almost built! I know there are some control issues. I know the motor mounts and cowling looks like it would break off even with a cox .049 on it. I will address all of that, but...
I noticed on the end of the box 'Made in China' well my father used to build my planes for me to crash... one of those was the Sterling Ringmaster in the attached photo. He once built a beautiful Piper Tri-Pacer for me, and on the initial flight I managed to introduce it to the concrete in such a way that it became a Piper Million-Pieces-Pacer..
So now I can crash planes made by someone else; just like old times,again!
