My first radio... World Engines "Phoenix"
I rescued this radio from my older brother a few months ago. This was my first radio back in the early 70's. Anyone know anything about this radio? I have all of the original servos, receiver, batteries (I'm sure they have long ago gone bad) and charger. I can still remember sitting looking at this radio for hours dreaming of flying that plane we were building with Dad.

World Engines Phoenix Radio
Bird Dog,
Great Pictures of that old radio.
I have never seen that radio before, but Dave Brown, who is the current President of the "AMA" used to fly World Engine Radios back in the 70's and was the Pattern champion for a few years running.
Maybe he would know something about it. You could possibly write a letter to him at the AMA address.
Good Luck.

World Engines Radio
I flew WE stuff from the early/mid 60's thru 1984 and I don't specifically remember the Phoenix. It looks a lot like one of their Blue Max radios from the early 70's, except the BM came in a black case. What does the print say under the Phoenix logo?
