I have a family, we fly, and we are not rich. So for us it's the same thing, but most of our goodies come from Hobbyking and not Horizon. We use Turnigy 9XR radios at $50 a pop (so same capability as a DX9 or 18 but no $800 price tag, so my 5x 9XR radios with 16 channel mixers each, cost together less than a single DX6). Supporting 5 flyers in a family has made me thankful... (NO... GREATFUL!!!) for things like Hobbyking! My daughter has even gotten to where she is flying Twisted Hobbys stuff now, but like he mentioned in the video, we fix em together and it all works out in the end. We may spend a lot, but it is nowhere near what people think we do on RC. As long as there is Dollar Tree foam, Folks like Josh showing us what to do with it, and someone like Hobbyking providing cheap electronics, we will all be flying. And on that note, I like the ability to actually GIVE away a few planes and helicopters to friends too. I wouldn't do that with truly expensive things, but have given some complete helis, quads and even a plane to friends and family, and since then most of them have come with us to the flying field later. Regardless, the important part is go do stuff with your kids while you have em.

I have a 4 year old son that always asks to fly my quadcopters, but with their value and expertise in use, I always feel bad telling him no, not till he's older. But about a month ago, I bought him a rc boat for his birthday (also one for me, both our first boats) and they are very easy and fun to use. He's been enjoying going out to the lake every time and has been picking up quickly how to use the transmitter since it's a lot easier to use then a two stick transmitter. After watching this I'll be considering a small foam airplane for his first flyer. I like the Magnum that was being flown. Looks like a good starter plane.

Hey FliteTest I have a crazy idea of a hybrid model of a plane and a quad copter. The fuselage will be big and fat like a cargo jet, that being so the quad motor links can fold out from the fuselage and have a thick large wing over the top and to have a drop zone some where under the belly for either bomb doors or fpv camera setup. It would be cool to see you guys maybe try and build something like this?
