Cheers Dave.
Gday Dave,

I havent even ran my O.s engine in but my bday is coming up again soon and my old mans gone ahead and bought me a foamy twin brushless A10 to learn with, we are of the thought that, its easier to learn with a foamy, coz you hit the deck, you find each piece apply epoxy, slap on a few band aids, then your flying again the next weekend. Where as if i prang my cub its spend half a day looking for individual pieces and access whether it can be salvaged. :yes: :yes: :yes:

Ill definitely let you know, and more than likely have my fiance shoot some footage of my maiden flight.

4 hours of digging is dedication in a nutshell. Hopefully this piece will be worth the digging and be transformed into a Bonsai you're satisfied with.

Looking around my benches at this years repot, and the trees I've often wondered "what I'm doing with this?" are starting to reward me with a picture that just gets better with each year of perseverance.
Gday Siddhar,

Thanks for the inspirational words, Im at that point now where i can visualize where my trees are heading and with each year i get that much more patient and resilient. Good to see you posting again too mate :)
