Started flying CL in 1956 flew off and on for about 10 years. Dropped out of college in 66 and was drafted in 67 did my tour as a grunt in 68. Came home could not assimilate back into society so started building cars and motorcycles to make a living. Around 1973 I got back into flying only this time it was RC was building all of my servos, receivers and transmitters ( courtesy of ACE RC). Last flew RC in 1979 same year I started a Jemco P47, which I have still not finished. Fast forward to 2010 found out I have some very serious health issues. Shut down my car building business and took a few years to try and figure out what I was going to do from then on. Decided to go back to my first love which is building RC planes and that is where I stand today. Would rather build than fly now days, reaction times are really slow now and CRS has set in bad. I will be asking a ton of questions most probably dumb, but hey I have to ask to know.
Mike

Thank you for your service! There is nothing more rewarding than seeing that finished masterpiece. No matter if it is a car, a boat, a model airplane or a radio. Something about creating something with your own hands brings an immense amount of enjoyment. We are glad you are a part of this community, Mike. Also, thank you for your support of RCSB.
Cheers, Mike

Hey Mike.
it's not CRS, it's just that you have so much in your memory that it takes longer to find. That's my story, and I am sticking to it!

Mike,
As with everyone else, I welcome you to the site & no questions are stupid. We're all here to help out & I'll be the first to admit I've asked many questions that might've been interpreted as being stupid.
So here's my question: what exactly is "CRS?"
Skye
