I shall be in this area next week on a business trip. Can anyone tell me the
names and addresses of hobby shops carrying r/c aircraft stuff?

Thanks,
SF.

Steve,

> South Bend

In Mishawaka, there's;

Hobbyland
Town & Country Shopping Center
2564 Miracle Lane (off of McKinley Highway)
Ph: (574) 255-1722
{fairly good selection, opens @10:00 AM}

In Michigan City, there's;

R & D Hobbies
4217 Franklin Street
Michigan City, IN
Ph: (219) 879-7563
{fairly good selection, open @12/Noon - 8 M-F, 10- 6 Sat}

Hobbyland' prices are a wee bit high, & they're about 20-30 minutes
from South Bend Regional Airport.

R & D's prices are much better, but they're about 30-40 minutes from
the airport....take Highway 20 from in front of airport, (West) over to
Michigan City. Located in a mini-mall on right side of road before Wal
-Mart.

> I shall be in this area next week

What day(s)?
I'm off this week & might be able to help more.

Never heard of it. You could try searching via Mapquest or Google.

Steve,
Phils is an excellent source of information and equipment.  The website is:

http://www.philshobbyshop.com/

Good Luck!

also, there is a full service hobby shop for rc stuff in bremen, just nw of
the center of town, along highway (N&S) to south bend.
