| Saltyflats User ID: 19643906 United States07/15/2012 04:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was into RC planes several years ago. I'm currently running a Traxxas T-Maxx 3.3 and flying a Blade SR 120 and Falcon 40 RC Heli's. These are all RTR or RTF. I tried to build a balsa wood airplane 20yrs ago. Fail! I started RC as a kid building Tamiya Hornet, Frog, Wild Willy.
