Hey Guys

talk about new ....well my name is Marius and i live in germiston.i used to have nitro cars and off road trucks long time ago and sort of went off the whole rc thing for a while.ive been living in the U.K for the last ten years i have my fiance and two boys who still live in England they are moving here december and i cant wait.I really want to get back into the rc scene but this time with planes and heli`s as i think they can be a lot more fun.My other major hobby is reptiles i have a reptile shop in the U.K where i sell mostly reptiles that have been bred by me and my fiance.so now you know a bit more about me and what i am about

Congrationlations on a fantastic forum would be better if it was busier but i am sure as more people find out about it,it will pick up.so guys i am serious about getting into rc planes and helis and i have spent most of the day reading almost all the posts there are in the forum and cant wait to get my hands on something to fly lol will be posting all the crashes  ;D
 cause i think there will be a fair few of those.thanx again for a wicked forum

Hi Marius

Welcome to the forum, and welcome back in SA. I have family living in the uK, Milton Keynes for about 10 years now.
Good thing to start again in the hobby, an also planes/Helis.
This forum is pretty new and yes, not lots of people know about it yet, but the crowd hanging around here, is some of SA's Top Pilots.
Feel free to ask any question you want about the RC thingies.
You can also visit www.e-hobby.co.za. Maybe you can find your first rc plane or heli there to buy.

Cheers
Danie

Look at the Trex 250, it's value for money and excellent starter
