I got one hanging in my shop. I put all the RC flying events I want to go to in it.
Went to the AMA show today. The best part was seeing my RC friends at the scale booths. Wow love that B-29!!!

The basin is hosting a Q40 race this weekend. I went out Saturday to grab a few photos. Those little bugger's sure are hard to catch at the speeds they are flying.

Wow, the Basin thread is kinda dead these days. I found it back on page 4. A certain guy from Ohio posts here more than the local guys!
L A Jets this weekend was especially fun because everyone was safe with no crashes, no fires, and great weather, and I was part of it again!

Hey Corey,

Very nice video!!


LA Jets was great fun even though I only got 2 flights in. I was keeping Brent in charged batteries and getting our demo jets ready for him to fly for us.
I got a lot of video as well. Here's the a video of new full composite F-20 kit. More videos to come, including your F-4.
My pics didn't upload here?? I'll try again later.

It is with great sadness that I must inform you all of the sudden and untimely passing of Dave Rink (Taildraggerdave). Dave was a dedicated RC fixed wing and helicopter pilot who loved the basin and all who shared the field with him. I will always remember him for his kind smile, friendship,great attitude and willingness to help any fellow RC'er with whatever problem they might be having.

I will post details of his funeral as soon as they are available.

We have lost one of the best guys in the hobby.

What was the cause?

I'm really saddened to hear about this.
Dave was a great guy.
Dave (and his friend Tim) introduced me to formation flying. We were flying the same p51 for awhile.
Tim got into full scale while Dave got into 1/4 scale RC cars/trucks and then Harley Davidsons like 5 years back.
Any word on what happened to Dave?
