My wife and I are planning a move soon to South Carolina (Spartanburg area).

I've already looked at the AMA clubs, and the Spartanburg Sky Knights looks like they have a great flying field. I hope I can meet some of you electric flyers there.

I like to build. In fact, I build much better than I fly - there may be a correlation there somewhere My last three planes were a BMJR Spacewalker built from one of their fine kits, a Demi Duster from plans (redrawn in CAD and a short kit laser cut), and a Sig MidStar 40, converted to electric with twin motors mounted in nacelles on the wing.

Once we get settled in (my workshop space is #1 on my list - of course, my wife may have a different opinion of priorities!) I'm going to start work on my next project: an AgMaster II (another crop duster) from plans and CAD drawings. Electric, of course!

Me got's two outta three of those ships....and I'll have to put some pressure on someone who has that last one.

Enjoy the weather down theeaa, those natives are gonna love your MA accent!

Thanks again for the sweet deals, can't wait to fly 'em!

LOL! Good luck getting him to part with the Demi Duster! But don't worry, once you fly that MidStar twin, you'll forget all about it! That is one sweet bird! Heck, it even made ME look good flying it!

By the way, you can see just how well it flies with this clip from an on-board camera: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyW-Ye-sQJs

Paul your gonna make it tough on me to buy planes now do you ship?

Have a safe trip and thanks again for the stuff you sold me. Make sure you plane a trip to SEFF you and the wife would have a great time.

Now what Demi Duster are you talking about wouldn't be the one I have would it.

If I knew how to pack properly so things wouldn't get damaged, I would have brought the Midstar with me! I'm already planning my new workbench (since it looks like I'll have a much larger area to work in ) and will hopefully be covered in balsa dust in no time!

Looks like we'll be less than an hour from the Joe Nall e-week event. Should have something unique ready to fly by then.

Guard that Demi Duster with your life.....

Going to have to look into the PBR-RC Aeromodelers. Club field is only about 6 miles from home - can't beat that!

Oh, and I'm sneaking down to Joe Nall sometime this month, just as a spectator. I will bring my camera, though!
