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,

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.

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