We have something in comon then - although I used (must say used due
to lack of time) to fly electrically powered RC helicopters. It's much
fun - but again did not had (or took?) the time for years now.

No single word against those proxxons. I have one myself but use it
for different purposes. Again, I decided to take the aproach of having
an as cheap as possilbe CNC drill only machine for the sole purpose of
drilling PCB's. Under that aspect, mounting a Proxxon onto it would be
a real waste.
