[NSRCA-discussion] The Pilot

[Bob Richards]

John,
   
  I'm taking the inexpensive route right now. A Hangar 9 Extra 260 ARF (< $380) and a 50cc class engine (< $600). Only one servo per surface. I already have radio, servos, etc. Fuel costs will be less.
   
  The engine I chose is the Evolution 45GX, but a DA50 is the most popular choice and is a great engine for about the same price.

      Bob,
   How much does it cost to get started in IMAC? I've seen some of those big gas planes and they look really cool. I don't have one yet, but if the price were right I might give one a try. I got started in pattern for around $1100.00 - I already had a transmitter and flight box etc. and I bought used equipment. If I could spend the same and get a nice big Edge or Extra I might start looking at that stuff. Just wondering.
