Welcome back to the Forums and the hobby! Glad to have you with us.
I also flew R/C for years but switched to Sailboats. I could fly OK, but, landing was a problem. Never stopped building plastic and wood models from the first one in 1946 (6 years old).
Stick around and you will find a lot of modelers in your area.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
