Hi pilots,

after 20 years inactivity now it's time to pickup the hobby we all like
again. One of the things I need is a nice and complete fieldbox. Who has a
sketch/ drawing of one that is complete and full of handy utillities that we
just can't miss on the field as RC motor pilot ? (and want to share that with
me ?)

thanks,
Ronald

Are you looking for one that carries everything you would have in your
shop and weighs 38 pounds, or one that carries what you most likely
will need and looks just like the ones in the hobby shop?

Hi John,

It does not have to look like anything. At this moment I think it could as
well be a box with wheels that's a bit bigger and could contain almost
anything. In my earlier days I used to have one that contained a lot but
missed the wheels.
Most important: fuel, pump, props, small replacement parts, a few
screwdrivers, pliers, transmitter, battery, a collection of glues, pins. Nice
to have a construction to hold a plane without wheels.
the combination fuel and electronics ask for an externally located fuel
container and shock protection for the transmitter.
