UAV pilot do you know which month that issue is of bacckyard flyer?

UAV Pilot

I imagine that it has to be the newest issue, don't have the issue myself. I didn't scan that picture, If i did , I wouldn't have cut off my name from the top

Seek and Destroy

i think i need to go to the book store to see if i can find the newest issue.

Its on page 61 of the September 2006 Backyard flyer magazine. There is a code to use on the website, but i cant find the link on the site. Supposedly a limited edition!

Seek and Destroy

Target says you can pre order them here > [link=http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=1-11/qid=1152315481/ref=sr_1_11/602-0033076-1279814?%5Fencoding=UTF8&asin=B000ETRELK]Storm Launcher[/link] <

Did you notice that the power pak is sold seperately??

UAV Pilot

Yes. The battery should sell for about $29.95. It is a 7.4 volt 740MAH high output lipo. Comes with a balancing smart charger. It will probably be listed on the web site when there SL hydro shipment comes in.

There will be some sold as a set ( SL hydro and battery/charger) for around $99.95

There is a new web site with video here> [link=http://www.stormlauncher.com/]Storm Launcher[/link] <

can you use the charger with other li-po batteries?

UAV Pilot

Not as it comes out of the box, but if you know what your doing, and took it apart, you could probably put a plug on it. It's a balancing charger though, so it has three contacts, and is made for two cells.

The battery with charger is for sale here > [link=http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=1-1/qid=1152746321/ref=sr_1_1/602-0033076-1279814?%5Fencoding=UTF8&asin=B000FE7EP0]Click Me [/link] <

phoenix22

UAV Pilot

Target is almost out of them but I think that > [link=http://www.etoys.com/Results.html?_ts=A001&formFirstTime_hdrsearchEThead=Y&textSearch=1&FirstSearch=YES&place=ajnv&previous_keywords=&D=storm+launcher&formState=&formInfo=T%7CD%7C0%7C255&formMap]E toys[/link] < Still has some. They also have the black and yellow one listed.

UAV Pilot

It has a built in safety plug.
A 3s will fry the system in the boat.

do u know how many roughtly target has for sale?

makg

I don't know but I'd pre-order one quick, (like me) they're selling like hotcakes.

dsmdan95

thinking such.... it would probly be foolish to wait for one to come into the store better credit card lol


Now they JUST changed it from july 26th release date to 2 to 6 weeks?[:@]

makg

Target says i'll get mine August 25, they ship on Aug 23

UAV Pilot

I don't know what's with the wide range in dates, Could be who order first or were you live , what store its coming from. I know the original add in backyard flyer said in August, so I was surprised to see target list them for July. Just don't know?

makg

Yea, I thought it was kind of weird, too...hopefully it will ship and get out sooner[&:]
