| Great Planes Model Distributors RealFlight BASIC Flight Simulator |
| In recent years, several companies have introduced a new generation of flight simulators. I remember the first time I saw one. It was a few years back, when I walked into the main floor at the Toledo show and saw a big-screen TV showing what I mistook for a video of a model airplane flying. Whe... |

| Futaba WTR 7 FASST™ Wireless Trainer System |
| Then I started going through my mental check list. "Let's see, I know I still have an old buddy cord, but it's one of the round ones - I'll have to dig out some of my older transmitters." Then, lo and behold, Futaba asked me if I would take a look at their new "wireless buddy box system". I did... |

| Great Planes Electrifly VFO |
| When I first saw the VFO advertised, I thought now this is different. I love the simplicity and bang for the buck that foamies provide and when I got the chance to review the VFO, I jumped on the opportunity. |

| Hangar 9 Funtana 125 |
| What blew me away was how I was able to perform nice rolling harriers without having to blip the throttle to bring the nose back up while rolling. Spins flatten out pretty nicely with full elevator and mid throttle settings. Recovery from spins is also very easy by simply releasing the sticks. |

| Hangar 9 P-51D Blue Nose 60 |
| I got my first look at this beauty at last year's Toledo Show, and three things immediately caught my attention: The scale outline, the flat finish with panel lines, and the retracts. I was hoping that I would get the chance to get up-close and personal with it. So without further ado, let's di... |

| Great Planes Shoestring - 60 |
| Aerobatics can be done with very little effort. Large, graceful loops look beautiful and rolls look like they are done on a string. More complex aerobatics look good too, but that isn't what the full scale Shoestring was designed to do. |

| Greg Covey's Amp'd Issue 14: Storing Lithium for Longevity! |
| Although new market trends are lowering prices, most of us consider the cost of Lithium batteries to be a significant part of our electric flight setup. If we had been previously flying with glow or gas engines, suddenly paying for fuel "up front" can be a real paradigm shift. When we buy a bat... |
