But you don't build models, you build airplane mannequins! Put one of those hanger queens in the air, and then you can look down your nose at us!
Type at you later,
Dan McEntee
then you can look down your nose at us!
I already do!
And have for a long time. I'll fly all of them and you'll troll about my not competing.
Being hateful and trolling another modeler does nothing to promote the CL hobby or the Forum. I said this years ago when 60 of the Forum's finest were trolling me each and every day. Many have grown up, sad a few others have not.
A good percentage of you people don't care about promoting the CL hobby.
Why are many of the "real" contest guys and NATS competitors not even in the Forum?
Dan, how long have you been trolling me, 8 years?
I troll no one. I have no reason to because there's no one that bothers me in any way. Sure, I see guys like you nitpick everything I do or say but so does each and every member of the Forum see this. Hey! whatever floats your boat.
I don't care, I've even backed off my participation in the Forum. There's no point, I'm better off using this time for myself.
My not flying my models? That's no one's business than my own and each and every modeler understands this. The "stage" you look like a fool on it always ribbing/trolling me about not flying my models. Everything negative, mudding Threads.
I have the backing of a real modeler and life long competitor in CL stunt competition, Will Moore. Oddly we saw each other at the flying field. A great guy who's abilities and talents I wish I had. Offered me a good deal of help and because of Will Moore, I'm going "electric."
Never once did he show animosity. Will was flabbergasted when he saw the ARGO 2 for the first time. And he expressed it.
The ARGO 2, a "quickie" using only aerosol cans.
And for those of you who haven't read Will Moore's comments on my ARGO 2, here' again.

I was at the flying field yesterday, and guess what, Charles showed up with his ARGO 2. His graphics were flawless ( because he is an expert master graphic artist), and the airplane was incredibly beautifully finished.Local BOM contests would judge it near perfect. NATS maybe 2nd or 3rd row. I’m not kidding. When Charles told me it was a quick job, I wondered what perfection would be like. When he told me he painted it outside, in Florida,
With rattle can paint, I almost couldn’t get my head wrapped around it. So I looked up this post, so I could mention what I saw. No drips, no bugs, no errors. Finish wasn’t even compounded out. Some comments have been made about whether it can fly or not, or whether Charles can fly it or not. Well, I know it can fly, and I know I could put it through the pattern with respect. It has a T Bird wing, and moments. So the design parameters are modern enough. Can Charles put it through the pattern? Does it matter? That’s not what this hobby/sport is all about. Charles loves to build. You can plainly see it in his creations. I love to fly. (And Charles told me I’m off my game, a bit, LOL ). I can’t build and paint like Charles does. I get too impatient. So what. Credit should be given where credit is due. And then, leave the rest alone. It’s a hobby, for goodness sakes. Enjoy!"Painted in a couple of days! Outside! Now.The ARGO's finish blows the ARGO 2's finish away. Does this, by Will Moore's description of the ARGO 2 mean the ARGO could be front row?
Front row, back row or no row, I don't care, All I know is I admire modelers like Will Moore and miss modelers like Marcus.
Real promoters of CL modeling and wonderful individuals.
My work and efforts with this hobby speaks for itself, and trolling is fooling no one.
