Default Hot New Products This Year!

Can't make it to Toledo, but you want the latest scoop?

Let me know by posting your questions here.


"Is DA coming out with a 75cc Engine?"

"Does Hangar-9 have a new show-stopping 3-D plane?"

"Is Futaba coming out with a new Computer Radio?"


Ask your questions here, and I will do my best to get you some answers in the upcoming Toledo '06 coverage!

Great idea Minn.

Lets get the prop spinning with;

2. Is Top Flite releasing any new giant scale warbird ARCs?
3. Is JR working on a spread spectrum radio for aircraft use with at least 12 channels that won't cost $1200.00 or more?
4. How many manufacturers have really cute girls working their booth (photos required)?
5. Is Hangar 9 releasing a new 33% aerobat?
6. Will Hangar 9 ever go back to offering solid colour arfs?
7. How many manufacturers have really cute girls working their booth (photos required)?
8. How does the quality of the new skyshark P-40N arf appear.
9. Is Skyshark every going to come out with larger kits?

Mike, sorry, but a couple of very minor corrections:

1. Not a kit, but Top Flite will be releasing a new ARF later this summer. They have a Staggerwing bipe for 1.60 engines. Yes, it looks VERY slick. There is a picture in the first post of the Toledo 2006 - RCU Coverage thread. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4138579/tm.htm
4. Several! See the above thread for pictures.

Hey, MinnFlyer, your wife isn't half bad either! I don't think that she has anything to worry about.

The young lady in the Skyshark booth was damn good looking..
However.. On Sunday during teardown she looked damn hot...
Plus I could see her often being as she was directly behind my booth ..
She is actually a very pleasant lady as well..
