Oh Yeah....

I have some Carden Custom Wing/Tail/Vertical bags that were made for this plane...
I have someone interested, but if they don't work for him, I will offer them for sale.

I think the wing bags would handle a 128" wing. Beautiful work!

Sorry Mith, were you using the futaba 501 G3 receiver? Some die so young and I know how you feel.

I can't go into details, it definitely was NOT the Rx's....

I at least got 20 flights on her before she died.... I checked out spare parts from comp-arf...
it would be $500.00 less to buy a new plane... they are obviously NOT interested in a spare
parts business....

I will resume future activiteis on HAM frequencies I think!

Mith, how are you sure it was not the G3 receivers? Did you trim the antenna's?

Please be patient.... I just don't want to openly speculate until I have confirmed the cause...
Right now I know nothing for sure... 'cept the Rx's are 99% NOT the reason.. I did a lot of trouble shooting with multiple planes and Rx's... I just don't want a lot of speculation or comments made about this particular product when in fact the cause could be much different then I/we thought.
But to answer the question... some of my Rx's are shorty antenna.. some are not... that did not seem to be relavent in this case.

(C.D.) told me and we were thinking of meeting at the newly reruled "Riverside feild" for some slow, below 400ft, non 3D, non hovering over the runway, fag circle flying.[:@] "Whatever!!!" Or we can skip all the powertrip and just meet at Rabbit and we will buy the beer afterword[&:] Your choise. BENDER
