Has anyone here seen or flown one of these?
I'm looking for a low wing trainer as my first step up from a high wing
Seagull Boomerang 40. While the Boomerang is a good plane and can be thrown
around a fair bit it is time to move on to a low wing. My eventual goal is

I have a Futaba TX that has a digital readout for the battery
voltage (T6XAS).  As far as I know, it doesn't have a low voltage
indicator (I'm a little short on documentation, I got it used).  How
low should I let the volatge get before I worry about recharging it?  I

flex exhaust is way to long.

Does anyone make/have any of the following:

I saw that the Senior Telemaster is now avvailable in A.R.F. form and
comes with an electric motor all for $195.00. This sounds like a heck of
a deal. I am getting back into r.c. flying and I need a trainer. I would
rather use an Evolution 61 that I have instead of the electric ...

The bane of my life is finding that very fine gauze used to keep muck
out of fuel. I use 'er at 'omes discarded panty hose as a poor
substitute.
