    Day I was born parents hit head on by logging truck! When I got older had 3 eye surgery left me blind for year each time. So my dad set up a cork board, pins balsa wood, etc, plane kit an he would sit with me after he came home from work an go over the parts I put together that day from help he gave me yesterday. So when I got my bandages off an knew I wouldn't be blind forever, family went to elementary school field an flew the planes I built blind! I can remember spending time of trying to figure best center of gravity an then being able to see flight characteristics from guesses! It wasn't good times but my dad's planes an mom reading to me everyday got me through the trama! Thanks for memories, Tim

Loved how wings became like drums! Painted red/white/blue. Yeah, fun flying times! P.S. first time I flew in real airplane, it crashed on landing, prop hitting ground, flipping plane upside down on its top! Found myself hanging upside down in wreckage, pilot/owner blacked out hanging next to me, waiting for the fuel an fire to blow our asses up!

    This video sold me. So thank you Jeremy. The accessibility with which you guys have opened to hobby up to, makes it so much easier for people like me with no RC groups anywhere near me.

    Cool Warbird looks like it flies really good.
    Here's a building tip for you, if you know your hands are going to get dirty, a little preplanning will make cleanup a breeze, before you get started put some hand lotion on your hands. The lotion acts kinda like an invisible glove and prevents most contaminants from penetrating your skin. I do this every time I'm going to work on my car; dirt, grease and oil just won't stick to your skin. When your done a little soap and water and your hands are clean.

    Jeremy: I love you and your videos. You progression through build and flight are so relatible. You are such a calm soul, and I see my own thought process through you. I am an artist, and byiling for me is a non issue (accept for my perfectionism). I have no friends to fly with, and I have tried on my own with no success. Which has left me to build, but never fly. I WANNA FLY... One day I hope I will, but watching you gives me hope that I will experience what you do in your videos. Keep being awesome, and know one more person is also cheering you on to be great in flight. Thank you for you inspiration to never give up.

With all the steps in the journey, including what he's shared about his own personal challenges and how he's associated his struggles with what he's learned through Flite Test, this had the feel of a triumphant moment that carried more weight than just flying an RC plane for fun. That P-40 is no Sea Angel, but it's still part of the success story. :)

    Beautiful warbard. The P-40 is an awesome airframe. It should be praised as the P-51 or the P-47, they did help fight off the Japanese at Pearl harbor.
    You guys are doing an awesome job. Congratulations Jeremy, you are progressing nicely. Some day I will have the opportunity to build and fly. I fly quads right now, but planes are what I really want to fly.
    I subscribed to your channel and will follow that. Movie making and prop building is another one of my passions.
