Default New(ish) Member Hello

Hi Everyone,
After part time lurking for the last year, I've decided it's time to start the build process.

I just wanted to say hello and thank you for all the information, I have a feeling I'll be spending many hours here.

Best,

Allen

Welcome!

Which version of the Kool-Aid are you about to drink?

Thank you! The 7A slider variety in some sort of kool-aid colors.

Default Welcome Allen.

The 7A flies like a dream. IMHO, the slider is a good choice.

Welcome! You can't go wrong with any RV! A great company, excellent parts, helluva support group/forum and sweet flying birds!

Spring for a quick build if you can and save yourself a year or more.

I've only flown a few, but from my side, they all fly like a dream!

Thanks! I'm thinking QB wings and SB fuselage. Based on the averages I'm seeing, they both seem to be taking roughly the same amount.
