Congrats! Welcome back. Getting divorced revitalized my tank building also. Whenever I think of my ex I put on the song, "Pray for You" by Jaron and The Long Road to Love. You can find it on Youtube...great song.

It has the word "pray" in the title, but it is not a religious song just in case anyone is concerned about that.

Thank you Derek!
I'm not religious either, what's done is done buddy!
When I think of the ex war office.....Duality... Slipknot plays in my head


I've been out for around 5yrs, was building a firefly when I ceased operations. I built a Cromwell Ludwig kit also a few years back, sold it when I got unfastened....too cheap but hey ho! Got a few others as well, been packed away for-e-ver so time to get them going again.
Electronics have moved on.....I'm not a tech guru, but okay at wiring.....computers....nah lol. So I'm hoping sone kind soul will help me out when it comes to sounds and controls .....so many good sites and builders have since shut up shop I see.
Enough rambling .....
Thank you again and.......smoke me a kipper. ...I'll be back for breakfast!

Hello, Ace: it's good that you are going to dig out those oldies but goodies and get back in the game. As you no doubt can tell, the electronics wizards here on RCTW have advanced mightily. However, I have found that these same folks who communicate with one-another in the (appropriate) jargon of electronics can turn around and explain it to the likes of me. So onward and upward, Ace.
