I can fly it without crashing... Either the kite or plane.

I have probably a dozen or so RC planes and 10 or so kites in my garage. RC is mostly electrics and gliders, but there is a gas plane or two. Now, I haven't flown them this century, but I used to win glider competitions when I was in So. Cal.

Nice. I grew up next to a large field where my GF's brother now goes to HS. But when I was in JH and HS it was a large field where I drove my dirtbike on occasion and most weekends old guys flew gliders. I hung out with those guys just learning about them (the gliders).

So one year for Christmas my parents bought me a kit called the Sturdy Birdy. It was PVC, aluminum and balsa and looked like it was made in someone's garage. I think it took me nearly a year to build. I ended up cutting my fingers on the propeller and crashing it twice before it was destroyed.
