Status: offline 		Hopefully tommorow I will have another target for the zagi's to chase, have cut a PBF and a Delta from Depron. Now if I can get them finished in time will be a blast.

However I also need to finish my Sukhoi, and I just got my UCD3D built up by winston, dying to fly that also

I am hearing of many who want to boycott it, since its so obviously targeted at trying to sell one particular persons planes.

Guys, your opinions?

Status: offline 		I think it is bad to boycott something on that basis. I mean come on, even if the LHS in Amcorp Mall were to co-organise this event he will promote his stuff, this is normal and most acceptable as long as he does not ban anyone from other shops (they done it in cars before, they meaning some idiots who run RC car shops in Penang). I mean if you have a product to push you will use all means to do it. Its just business la ...

I will probably go just to suppor the event per se, my policy is that I will buy from any shop that gives me fair prices and good service. I buy from Ah Wong, Ah Wee and Dayan. To be frank after all this time in RC I have learnt one thing, they are ALL out to make money and the margins are sometimes absurdly high. Just make a call to Singapore and you will see the prices there, don't talk about tax, the LHS gets DEALER prices.

If we all want to see the local RC scene grow then shops have to stop ****ing and we need to unite a bit more. I like the space ... I can't fly well at all but its nice to get together as hobbyists. Its called 'camaraderie'. The politics in RC is sad especially in cars ... I see it now a little in planes too.

Its a hobby ... let's have fun!!!

Status: offline 		Well, considering that its meant to be a carnival aimed at improving the hobby, then the whole thing shouldnt be biased to just one persons product. Its sad because this is the same stupid idiotic behaviour that killed the hobby a long time back in Malaysia. 20years back when i started flying, carnivals like this were done at least 8 times a year, then everyone started playing politics and "silly buggers" which killed the hobby.

As far as I know the LHS in singapore aren't as bad as ours when it comes to politics, thats why they survived so long.

Benson, the saito is a good engine, however the bgx is NOT. A number of people are not happy witht he bgx, so be careful. Saito has a great reputation, so I would go with that. BIgger planes are defintiely easier to fly and more stable in windy conditions.

Anyway, to more cheerful stuff, hope to maiden two planes this weekend, my sukhoi, and my UCD3D.

U got the UCD3D ... nice very nice ... I am starting tobuild my SU31 now, hope to maiden in a week's time. Let me know when you are going to take yours up. How is the balance? Did you add a lot of weight to the nose?

Status: offline 		Hi guys,

It's me...Dayan. Glad to hear that there is still hope yet for the MAC2!! I think the most important thing here is to make this event happen and the only way it can happen is with the support of the fliers. From what I know, the organizers are trying their best to make all the LHS's happy and are now allowing them to each organize their own event to promote their own products. BTW, we are staying out of it! we just wanna fly and have fun...besides we are too busy updating the official web site!

Also, the organizer has also arranged for a free aerobatics training to be held on 10th April 2004. The location is still undecided yet. This training will be free for all participants irregardless of which events they participating in.

BTW, if you guys wanna get in on the free training, cheaper participation fees etc, then sign up online at www.rcmalaysia.com

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!

Status: offline 		Hmmm...weekend flying there on a permanent basis may be a bit difficult to swing my friend. But we are working on another venue which is just as big with facilities like covered area, bar, pool, gym and of course a huge flying field!! But not sure if can "jadi" or not. Only thing is, this venue could be quite expensive...so we are trying to nego the rates as well.

Most likely, the aerobatics training event will be held at this "new" location which will give everyone a chance to test it and see if it is safe and comfortable enough and also an opportunity for all of us to talk to the management.

Status: offline 		25 bucks a weekend???? Thats too much to pay!!! I think most of use would not want to for out 100 a month just for the flying site. Maybe 10-20 bucks a month would be allright.
Thats the ceiling figure I am using to determine the rates for the Bukit Rimau flying site.

Still struggling to get that one, and have been bogged down with work so its slow going.
