Default R/C pilots?

I am curious who is into R/C airplanes on the board.

I've decided to get back into it after nearly 4 years off. Only flown 11 flights and I technically soloed one time, but the buddy box was still hooked up - just didn't help me with the flight.

I've got a Sig LT-40 I built from a kit back in 2004, a Cub .25 ARF that I need to finish, a GWS slow stick, a Sig EP-42 that needs to be recovered, and a Carl Goldberg Chipmunk kit that needs to be built.

Never flown RC although I had the opportunity to demo the Realflight G4.5 trainer which is a USB connected RC computer trainer. I was amazed at the fidelity of the simulation and thought it would be a inexpensive way to get the kids into RC flying.

Yes, that's it, it's for the children (such the humanitarian)
