Your funniest (weirdest, craziest,…) moment as a F3B pilot?

Most embarassing and a bit funny. When I started F3B, I underestimated the plane speed when landing. It slide past me and kept going to a bunch of pilots. They all jumped up together and the plane slide underneath and past them 🙂

What is the most important thing a F3B rookie should know?

Get an experienced pilot to show you how to do each task and to setup your plane properly.

Hobbies

Other RC disciplines – F3F, GPS, IMAC.

Electronics./Programming. I build F3F and F3B timing systems.
