List of air combat manuevers?
Does anyone know of a comprehensive list (diagrams/explanation maybe) of WW2 and modern day air combat maneuvers? IE: Hellcats, spitfires/mustangs and f-16/15/22 A-10 etc?

Well, as things have been turning out and my love for this hobby has grown. I think i really want to get into pattern. Especcially warbirds and jets/edf. maybe some day do some competitions. Pylon Racing looks wicked fun too. I like the high speed.

Slow down? Never.
Many people dont understand my work epics. I always undertake things that are far above my competence (in said certain area). Whether it be me writing my own book (which i am. i havent done much lately, but i have an edited chapter exerpt which i love).
I've had say...5 i think; successful flights on an RC plane, 3 or 4 with my slowstick, 1 with rays bird dog, an aileron nitro-trainer, and your plane for the 2 minutes i tried it. and my next plane which i plan to be flying by friday, is a full-3d bipe.
Slow stick is great, but i feel i'm ready to step up to something else. II never want to do something easy. I dont like complacency. I need a challenge.

Thats great, I am the same way too, I love a Challenge, I like to tackle and learn new things, I am always learning something new, Like i said, Go for it and have fun, Your Bi Plane, will teach you a lot, they fly a little different than a single wing plane, so you will learn what Air Drag does to a plane real Quick 
it will slow down faster, where you will need to keep a little throttle into it before landing, and the wind will blow it around more, but those are good things, it will teach you a lot, Take care, Chellie
