i tried to buy a radio controlled airplane from the local hobby store here... when i asked for some details on it i got deer in headlights look from them... ended up looking online and buying it there... now i wish id bought a different one...

What are you looking for?

First....Where are you going to fly it?
How much have you flown?
Are there any rf problems in your area


AND the big q


How much $$$$ do you want to spend??????

I have some middle of the road to start of high end. BUT like I say there are a LOT of variables.

OH, and then there's the gas vs electric battle..........

Haven't flown my planes in years Charlie still have most of then though.

I'm like you, I don't play with my rc's much anymore either. Cars, or airborne. I mostly just sell them


I have my very first plane! a gas WW II Corsair Got it when I was 12.
It has a rope. You used to fly it in a circle until it ran out of gas .
Got a little dizzy........


I thought many times about converting it......


I have a chopper for Sparky that would fill the back of Lil dulie

over 6' long...... will pick up 60 lbs

That location would be fair game for Skype; it really is easy to set up. Barring that, pick another VoIP service or have him send you a calling card and his Skype number.

I have an EDF trainer jet atm.. learning to fly didnt go too well... first time out not only did i crack the fuselage in 3 places but also shattered the nose and the front landing gear servo arm with embedded set collar stripped the set screw hole out.. so now it wont steer straight... wasnt so good at the flying part... did a very good job of crashing though... ive fixed the nose and the fuselage.. but cant get the steering piece i need to steer the plane...

Post me a picture. I BUY WRECKS...LMFAO


I probably have what you need

Thanks for the info. Under normal relationships I would bend over bacwards

You know the sunshine crap polarbear posts we all laugh at, and the kid/ grown adult always blaims on his parent?
Mine times 500

He can pound sand until his hands bleed. I still won't give him a bandaid
There are a lot more things I would/ could say, but that would probably get me banned for misuse of the forum.

I should have paid for an abortion

always "fun" to realize the last 4 hrs you spent working on something all has to be done over again because of bad wording on the forms you were filling in.

ill have to upload when i get home.. dad eats too much at work..

heres some pics when i finished it to begin with...

Nice little plane

What do you need to make her fly again?
I have a navy trainer here with broken wings, rest is complete, good battery, great 100' controller

dad = data in my post before... stupid AC...









the reason the side has such a big hole was i had drilled the collar wider to use a bigger set screw after the original stripped out... no one seems to have spares of this steering arm...

This is what it looks like when you pull the two pieces apart

That looks like a servo horn!...

it tis.. but unfortunately the only ones i can find are meant to fit right on top of the stervos... this one uses a push pull bar while the collet fits inside it to pinch the front steer wheel rod and turn it...

Here!...

ive seen them but wanted to find one in person to see if theyd actually work... hard to gauge sizes from pics...

course it doesnt help when i dont know how to read the descriptions to figure it out either...

Yea I know ,try your local hobby shop if you have one ,they come in different sizes ,micro ,standard ,an 1/4 scale size.

What is great ,is some actually clamp on ,so one might be modded to fit!...
