Hey, all you battery Guru's out there.  I have access to a 9ZAP radio
system and I have some concerns about the Battery packs ability to hold

Good day!  I know the buddy cable can be used "master-slave" on 2

extending up into the fuse and down to each wheel.  The replacement ...

I currently have an Aerobird with rudder and elevator on the right.  Now I
have a Super Chipmunk and with ailerons.  I've flown it with rudder on the
left stick and ailerons and elevator on the right stick.  I found it a
little harder to control.  My question is what is the common ...

The local AMA club just decided to not be a chartered AMA club next year.
