That is so cool. You're a good teacher, Mike. I tried that with the little girl next door. She wanted me to build her a Kitty Cat plane, so I built a plane that looks like a fat cat with a streamer tail and whiskers based on an Osbourne platter(my son said it looks like a tick). Our maiden flight got really funny when we mis-communicated and had a fly away. It was headed over the house while we just dumbly watched until my maple tree grabbed the lines.
Good going, I think Sam has the right stuff!

Oh yeah, and now that I know what you look like, I'll be able to find you easier in Huntersville.
See you then.

Sam is a lucky child to have such a proud dad.

Happy birthday Sam.    Great video and the smile on that face says it all.

Now for Dad,  some may disagree with me but, I had the same problem with my son flying high.   So I just adjusted a little down on the handle.   After that he started flying down around 6 to 10 foot laps.
