There is nothing more rewarding than coaching a youth through a build! Cannot wait to see Annabelle racing!

The only hard part is they get quite invested in the plane. And we all know about the lifetime of a racer! But she is learning skills for a lifetime hobby! So good to see.

Thanks Chuck she is really enjoying the build and already understand being invested when I crashed the Wimpy at the NATS she understood how fast and competitive it was, it took a lot to keep her from coming unglued, came home put it back together and crashed it again at the fall race in Muncie there where a few tears

Well after some indoor flying today, Annabelle got back to work on her wing. She had to take a little break for midterm. Here are a few pics from today, the wing is completely closed up now, with any luck we can get it close to finished tomorrow, then she needs to build her fuselage.

Alright guys and gals for all you who have been following Annabelle wing progress its now finished. With some help form her dad on sanding and control horn install, Annabelle did a great job for tackling a difficult first build, now time to get the fuselage done.

Special thanks to Tim lamp for providing Annabelle with a wing kit.

That's awesome! Way to go Annabelle!

Can't wait to see the fuselage. Then the entire model completed. Can't wait to see it at a race!
