I got this cheap used Flash 4 to fly my small electrics and parkflyers with,

(although I'm not really sure on the trim, since I always trim the hardware

Hi, A few years ago, I bought a product called simply, 'Model wax'. It was
in a small 1oz glass jar with a yellow label, & made by a company in
Chicago. It was brilliant stuff & did just what it said on the label, it
enhanced all painted surfaces & provided a deep gloss finish even ...

I ran across an ad for a 40 size "Bonanza" V tail arf a couple of weeks
before Christmas.  The same site also had a 40 size "Lysander" arf.
Both planes had a wingspan of around 70" and were rated for a 40 - 52 2
stroke.  I  have the distinct impression they were by the same ...

Just picked up a new flight box battery and see that it's a lead-calcium

I have 3 gold-stickered FGKs (old gold AM Futaba radios).  I recently broke the
casing on one, and would like to replace it.  I have seen many non-narrowbanded
models on ebay recently.  Can I buy any of the AM FGs (like say a 4-channel
wideband one), swap tx modules, and be good to ...

While I would like a semi-symmetrical wing, I have found a number
of good trainers.
One surprise: MegaTech's Capital Flyer where you can change the
dihedral brace  of the wing as you progress.

I just got the Futaba 9CAF to fly my new H9 Ultra Stick 40 with all the
features (Crow, Full length ailerons, etc.).  I've programmed the model
several different ways now and I found something that I want to share to any
other 9C user.  This spreadsheet is an excellent way to track ...

I saw the other post and thought I would ask on recommendations in San
Diego.
I get to leave "The Great White North" tomorrow and I will also have a car
to get around.

Please can anyone advise me of a good RC model shop in the DALLAS /
FORT WORTH area.  I am visiting at the end of the month and will have
a car to get around a sensible distance.

I have an Airtronics VG4R FM transmitter. It has a R/CMA AMA gold sticker on
the bottom dated 12/88.  It works fine, but I just want to be sure if it's
ok to use.  Thanks all.
