From what I've seen that you have, I'd suggest you get in touch with some one from a local flying field and hope they can help. Your pictures and the mess everything is in make it real hard to even guess what some of it is. Sorry !! ENJOY !!! RED

Yea...I think I am going to go down and do some cleaning up tommorrow and take some better ones. Sorry for the quality as they are taken from my iPhone. I am definatly curious about the 2 airframes that are pictured.....the only markings on them are "JR PROPO". Does anyone have any idea of who made these and if it was JR PROPO, why can I not find them online anywhere? Thanks for all you guys (and gals) help!

The plane sitting on the table is a Thunder Tiger trainer. It looks like somebody has put a cowl on it. I can't tell what engine is in it from the picture. But the trainer is worth $89.99 new.

Try a Google search on some of the names and stickers on the planes and parts you have. The heli has "Miniature Aircraft" stickers on it, which is a heli model manufacturer. The engine in it appears to be an OS 61VF-H from around 1982-83.

http://www.osengines.com/history/ostimeline10.html

The foam airplane in post # 6 appears to be a Sukhoi SU-27 target drone which was made for the US military. They were being sold around this website for about $75 or so each, new in the crate. Often I saw them sell where the shipping was more than the model cost.

The rest of the pics in post 6 , except the heli, appear to be control line planes and a box of parts. Try the control line forum for more ID info.

For more exact identifications, you should post pictures in the appropriate forums.

FWIW, if you're going to be picking RC items for resale, you've got to have a very good idea of what you're buying. Everyone thinks RC stuff is worth mega-bucks just because it was very expensive when purchased. RC items lose value very quickly, except for certain categories and collector quality items.

The C/L Bipe is a Sterling Flying Fool (kit S12). It would undoubtedly not be airworthy without major structural rehab as Sterling's plywood was poor even when new and would be delaminating very badly by now.

The C/L combat plane in poor condition with the diamond airfoil is clearly a Riley Wooten design called the Demon. It would probably be easier to build a new one from plans or use this one for patterns and measurements to build from than rehab it.

In other pics there's some C/L fuel tanks that appear to be Veco's and Perfects. I see a box claiming to be a 3-line J-Roberts bellcrank. These are still available and sell for around $25.

The framed up C/L stunt plane wing looks vaguely Nobler'ish but the tail and cowl are wrong...

The Thunder Tiger Trainer 40 that is shown in the pictures is not the same as the one that Ken posted the link for. The one pictured is the original model. I have one of those and it is still in flying condition after about 15 years. The original had a cowling and the upper half of the fuselage was plastic. I believe the engine is a Thunder Tiger GP40 or possibly a GP42 is it is a newer model. It is a great flying trainer and is very well built.

cutaway 's ID look right.

The red thing looks like an old profile Rat.

The stunter with no covering, red cowl, yellow fuse is a Sig Chipmunk.

The two planes, one blue and the other blue and white are both trainers of some kind. One is worth about what another is unless they are new.
