Marshall, what new thing have you and Clyde been working on this year!! Guys, last year they had a single channel setup where you could experience single channel flying with a buddy box!!! A great concept!!

Bob,

We should have a Lanier ARF to fly with a Kraft transmitter and a buddy box to a Controlaire reed transmitter. See if we can still fly reeds without too much chance of crashing.

And we will also have the single channel from last year. Hope to allow some people to try their hand a flying single channel and reeds again.

Looking forward to the event.

And maybe give a chance to those of us who didn't fly either! Marshall, what Lanier ARF did you and Clyde come up with? I have a Transit and a Caprice NIB. Russ Farris

Hi Russ,

The Lasnier is a sport 51. Sorta P 51 looking. It is a later kit I believe, from looking at the instructions.

Do you still want the Testors stuff I have? If so, I will bring it to Julian, assuming you will be there. Hope so.

Well, the weather was suppose to be threating but what we got was sunburned!!! As they say, if you don't like the weather here in NC wait 30 minutes as it always changing!!!

Yep, the wind was a bit brisk but we had several flights bit RC and controline and the rains finally came about 3:00PM but we had fun!! Vic did come with boxes of vintage engines both glow and ignition!! Having trouble loading the pictures. Will try later!!
