Hello everyone... My name is Terry and i'm from kansas 44 years young and very new to building in general had a couple years i bought alot of kits and stuff and stored them in my rafters along with a closet full of balsa wood,lol got into rc nitro cars and trucks, but thinking about getting back into planes, haven't built one as of yet, started on a topflite pt contender but its up in rafters and wanted to know if any of you guys have input for a rookie....and due to a tradegy in our life i feel i need to get building something to take my mind off things..thanks and god bless...Terry

Hello Terry. I'm glad you found us.

Iwould recommend you spend sometime-a lot of time cruising the pagesof this site. You will be amazed by how much you will learn by watching others. Pull that Contender out of the rafters and finish building it. Then fly, fly, fly it to get your thumbs limbered up.

After that, then pick you a scale subject. Something simple to ensure success; maybe a PT 19 or a Cub. No need to complicate things with retracts, etc. in the begining. Then just work you way up to the kind of models that really turn you on..

Again, welcome to the site. Enjoy yourself.

Ditto what Ron said, and my own welcome to boot.
