Status: offline 		Hello David,
Unfortunately the Magnum is not on the list and cannot be used. They allow OS .25 FP or LA and then K&B .20
Also, the Hobby People/Global T-6 is sold as a .15 size plane-I think. They only sell one in that size so either .15 or .25 is the same plane...I have the Global ARF and it is holding up well.
Just make sure you don't put EZ connectors on the ailerons. They frown on that. Hope to see you out there. Dave Rink

Thanks for the info. I reckon the ARF won't be a lot more expensive than the kit, as covering etc is so expensive!

Might see you flying!

The rules require a non bearing engine. You can remove the baffle but with a 8x5 APC it can't tach over 16,000 with the barrel open. Muffler bearings are forbidden as well.

Told ya it was an expensive itch!

If I do say so it was the talk of the Basin today.

Jason and I took turns hovering my latest creation to see who could touch the tail on the ground without crashing.

I know..... you got a hovercraft....... right?

90+ degrees? I'm not used to that! Can't you make it a bit cooler please? Don't forget I spell words like colour with a 'u', and that's done in the frozen North.

You should get a plumber then.

Basins definitely aren't supposed to do that, even with the plug out.

Once again I am referring to David's semi-obscure Monty Python signature. My line is the one that precedes his.

Re: your Top Ten thread....

2nd weak attempt at a flame war about the Basin. Is that the best you've got? I knew you could'nt keep from saying more. What's the real problem, the warbird guys won't let you fly formation? You crashed and want to blame someone else?

Where is a better place to fly in the area since you don't go to the Basin?

OK, let's take each in turn:-

10/ Interesting name. How many are called that?
9/ I have had a word with the culprit and it should be OK now.
8/ 'Incoinciderate' certainly is a problem. Especially as it is a word that doesn't exist.
7/ Leave your equipment in the trunk. Everybody would be happy then.
6/ Interested in trash cans eh? Wow! exciting!
5/ It's that non-existent 'Incoinciderate' again.
4/ It's not only the children who wear diapers, or so it seems.
3/ If it's that easy to care less, then they must care a lot.
2/ They only hum because they have forgotten the words.
1/ Hits? Where would you be without that as an excuse?

And finally. yes, I have to agree with you. You are wrong.

Status: offline 		I love the basin~~!! Sometimes I love not going there. About it sucking? I don't go there looking for any sort of activity like that either. Is there a part of the basin that sucks more than another? Is this a biker , suck bang blow reference? Camarillo has a nice little private field. Far away, up in foot hills, kinda windy. But really nice and nice people too. RD, I'm just sticking my where is was not asked for. I just remembered picadilly circus. Did you get that in ohio when you were little?

Simmer down now!~)
