Final Approach
I live in a boating community and my back yard is deck and dock on a freshwater bay. The water here is calm and flat nearly year round and during mornings and evenings can be glassy flat.
Some of my neighbors have R/C boats and some of my neighbors have ultralight float planes and regular float planes. I don't have much interest in the R/C boat and I can't afford, nor do I have the dock space for a real float plane, but it got me to thinking, what about an R/C float plane?
To those that are R/C airplane guys, what is involved with flying an R/C plane? Is it practical, or are you just looking at headache and heartbreak. How hard is it to learn to take off and land an R/C float plane? Is there a "trainer" version?
Thanks!
