Small 2015
 
Anybody planning on coming to Little Rock for SMALL ??

hfenn 04-18-2015 06:56 PM

I'll bring noise makers, and I don't mean burritos :)

skaliwag 04-19-2015 10:14 AM

Oh No!!! no burritos... but Beer?

hfenn 04-19-2015 04:47 PM

All the essentials!

LittleRock 04-20-2015 03:51 AM

Yes---Beer!!!

Tee Bee 04-20-2015 06:27 PM

I'm good for a noisemaker or two. Did skaliwag say he was buying the beer?

skaliwag 04-20-2015 08:48 PM

He would if he was going to be there.. doesn't look good for me to be in LR this year I'm afraid.

Dang, If the Skiniwag survives the first flights (which will happen soon), I'll have it there. We'll miss the keg or three that you would have provided. ;)

skaliwag 04-21-2015 06:24 AM

[ keg or three ]... I was thinking more like a suit case of Bud Lite..

Tee Bee 04-21-2015 01:08 PM

Hate to hear it, Steve. Take care.

av8rsodt 04-21-2015 05:51 PM

Bummer Skaliwag can't make it this year, but I completely understand. It was a close call this year, but my wife was able to get the kids EOG (End of Grade) test dates re-arranged.

We are on like Donkey Kong!

Brian, Nathan, Andrew and Zachary

Tony A. 04-22-2015 06:06 PM

My daughter and I will be there and looking forward to meeting everyone.

Steve A - We will miss you my friend but understand.

RRGeoSmith 04-23-2015 05:50 PM

Dang Steve, wish you could make it. I'll bring your Tent and Chairs anyway. They are done packed.

skaliwag 04-23-2015 10:01 PM

Hey George... Wish I could be there too .. but.. Tony A is going to be there from Edwards AFB in Cal... He could put the tent to good use..

RRGeoSmith 04-24-2015 01:23 PM

Steve, We'll do that very thing. We'll find him and drag him over to the dark side.

For free flight. The Sig Cub was the first free flight I built as a teen that flew well enough to disappear (into the corn).

I can't wait George and Steve thanks! Less than 5 weeks now with our arrival on Tuesday, Jun 2nd. Getting pretty pumped. Still need to figure out how to safely ship a few planes but I'll sort that out.

LittleRock 05-01-2015 03:18 AM

Tony,
No need to worry about bringing planes. There will be plenty to keep you and your daughter occupied.

Tony A. 05-01-2015 04:56 PM

Thanks Steve!

As previously discussed, I may ship a few "small" planes to you. I'd sure hate to be the new guy who tries to rally more 1/4 & 1/2A glow participation at SMALL on RC Groups, only to show up with nothing! :rolleyes:

Is there a LR hobby shop that carries 1/2A fuel?

Best,
Tony

RRGeoSmith 05-02-2015 03:36 AM

I'll pick you up a Quart of fuel at our local Hobby Shop before we leave for SMALL and if we need more I'll have plenty on hand.

Tony A. 05-02-2015 06:33 AM

Thank you George! I'll bring donuts and/or goodies of your choice. :)

RRGeoSmith 05-02-2015 04:36 PM

No problem. Glad to help out.

skaliwag 05-02-2015 05:16 PM

Goodies of George's choice... MMMmmmm.... What in the world could that be???

Tony A. 05-03-2015 09:03 PM

So...I've been on a mission to see if we can get a large turn out of 1/4-1/2A glow or diesel powered planes at SMALL this year.

The question: Who's bring .010 -.09 glow or diesel powered planes and the total number you'll plan to have at the gathering? Can we get a total of a least 25 - 30?

I plan to ship at least one .049 powered RC plane and two .049 control line planes. There's three! :)

RRGeoSmith 05-04-2015 03:38 AM

I'll have at least 3 or 4 but that includes diesels. I have two PAW .03s and one .06 and it I don't crash it Before SMALL, I'll have a Tee Dee .049 plane and maybe some others. What % Nitro do you run in your 1/2A engines?

hfenn 05-04-2015 11:35 AM

I think I listed 5 on the thread on RCG. And as RRGeo said, don't worry about fuel, we share, and I have a fresh

Tony A. 05-04-2015 02:08 PM

Excellent guys! Current total on RCU & RCG is 19 confirmed .010-.09 powered models. I may have to ship one more to make it an even 20. :)

George-I use 25% but once I'm at SMALL, I'll use Moonshine if it will keep my engines running. :) Thanks!

Hollis-Thanks!

Bassfisher from RCG reported FARM Club field is looking really good. He was there this past Saturday. All good!

Tony A. 05-05-2015 05:49 PM

Current count of .010-.09 glow & diesel powered models that will be at SMALL 2015 is currently over 50!

Fantastic guy...thanks!

kwilfong 05-10-2015 12:25 PM

I've been busy today getting stuff ready. Hope to have the SelExtra 500 that Hollis gave me ready to go. Just ordered a Bislob ARF........................Have several 1/2A C/L planes, & the usual Cox FF stuff. We'll make plenty of noise & smoke.
Gonna miss you Steve!

skaliwag 05-12-2015 06:31 AM

Hi Kev.. Wanted to come over again this year but the Sun , Moon and the Stars don't have their co-ords lined up.
Tony A and his daughter Evelyn will be there carrying the West coast flag. I even picked up a Cox Heli during the year for the annual .020 Heli Duration Event.
With me not being there the beer won't get warm. Weather will be absolutely 100% model friendly, and no one will lose a bird over the in the sticker weeds.
Glad you are going to have your ( the Prototype) Selextra with you.. Have you flown it yet?
Would be cool to see Yours and Hollis do a Bipe fly by or dog fight....

Tony A. 05-12-2015 10:19 PM

Steve,

We'll be waving it proudly for ya! Hope to see you soon. :)

Best,
Tony

If we're counting Cox RTF FF junk, I'll have at least 10 under .06

kwilfong 05-14-2015 01:10 PM

Talked to Pat Tritle a while ago. He's concerned about the weather & intends to make a go/no go decision a few days before the event. We should encourage him ; )

Tony A. 05-19-2015 06:01 PM

Just 2 weeks until our arrival. Anyone else getting excited yet? :D

I am! Looking forward to meeting you. I suppose George will put up the TLAR banners at our shade/hangout, so look for him, Kevin, me and others there. Be sure to drop by and let us know where you are set up. We usually have plenty of shade and chairs. See ya'll there!

RRGeoSmith 05-20-2015 08:50 AM

Hollis, I'm bringing Skaliwags tent and chairs for Tony to use. I'll probably be there around noon on Wednesday. Kevin and I will have the TLAR banners.

hfenn 05-20-2015 09:03 AM

It may be Thursday before I get there. I can't leave until after school on that Wednesday. So far no side effects from the treatment I had Monday.

kwilfong 05-20-2015 01:09 PM

Good to know Hollis! See you when you get there!
