  • Dave the Rave , forum spirit & eternal gratitude PLEASE READ !!!!!!

    This is going to get soppy very soppy :ack2: as in tissues ready so be warned.:confused:

    You May know at the 3D Grass Roots I destroyed Dave , my Rave env , now what you don't know is atm I am heavilly in debt so there was no chance of me ever , at least this year replacing him.

    Well you know whats comming next, last Night I had a phone call , I can't and never will say who from but after a short conversation I was told a very well know shop has a brand new ENV free :) Thats right totally free, TBH I was speachless totally , what do you say I was crying with happyness then as I am now , I still don't know how to say thank you.

    Some times the words "Thank you" are hollow and emotionless, In this case they are from the heart and forever.

    The kind person, he or she I don't know wants you all to know In their words

    [I]"Hi Rachel,

    An ananomous thank you will be fine. If you want, you can say that it is a gift from a friend who just wanted to show what true friendship and the spirit of the forum comunity should be about."[/I]

    Very True words , I feel so humbled.

    There have been others too PM's , kind words at the grass roots , hugs the list goes on.

    A small model shop owner who offered to help , Thank you :)

    Ashley davis who offered me his own Rave Airframe.

    In return as allways I give this hobby / sport my undying love , those of you who know my past maybe can appreciate how hard it's been to stick my head up in public and live my Life ,..
    I am soooooo glad I did.

    Thank You Heli Addicts , and all who make this close knit great hobby what it is :):)


    Told you it was going to be soppy ;-)

    I am truly not worthy of this

    :grouphug:'s and see you on the flight line

    WOW,That is truly amazing, just shows what a great bunch of people are still in this world and on this forum, is there a reason why you have not mentioned the name of who has replaced your rave as i think they deserve a extra big pat on the back, well done who ever it was.

      He / She wants to be remembered for there freindship not seen as a person who wants recognition. they did what they did out of friendship, not publicity.

          Do you know what Ross I think your right. Rachel, because of the generosity of Raj at Align Trex when Andy Richmond had his heli stolen by Lex47747 most of my business has gone his way. A little mention of the heart felt generosity from a retailer like the one you've found can go a long way to helping his business. Well done whoever you are.

            I'm so pleased for you :):):)

            This is one of the things that makes this hobby so great, it's not just the flying, it's the friendship and support as well.

            Enjoy the new bird!

            Cheers,

              See you were gutted at loosing dave, and I am so glad of the generosity this forum has yet again produced.

                    A very kind gesture indeed. He/She has a big heart and that goes a long way in this world, Kudos to whoever this person is. I'm genuinely happy for you Rachel and glad you've found a replacement.

                      Was it already painted pink ??.....if not send it back, must be a dud !!

                      I've always thought it was the company and companionship which makes this hobby, what a great story.
                      Cheers,

                          Good on you Rachel. It never ceases to amaze me how many good folk enjoy the friendship and excitement of this wonderful hobby.

                          I hope you get "Dave MkII" built up and flying real soon. I know I'm still delighted with my electric Rave ENV

                              Humm a name ???????????? Ideas anyone
                              Just an update Mark (raptormark) offered to replace the decals
                              And Mark Cristy (Talk heli) has supplied a set of blades radix too.
                              Also the kit is coming from Midland Heli and I am sure Matt & Rob had an input and I don't mean money :)
                              I wolud like to stress that this is not any form of sponsorship from them but tank you anyway guys

                              As for my reaction to it all ,..... overjoyed & humbled doesn't even cover it :)
                              I will just try to give back to the hobby as much as I have been given.
                              Thank you all.
                              Rachel in tears again lol
