RE: Field Kit
When I started in glow about a month ago, I bought a $20 Stanley rolling toolbox at Walmart and turned it into my "Caddy". I mounted some cheap bars at various points on the inside lower compartment to attach bungees to, and secured my jug of fuel and my 12v gel battery inside that lower compartment.<div>
</div><div>With a bit of persuading with a rotary tool, I cut an opening for the glow panel in the sliding door, drilled a hole for the tubing and mounted the pump to the outside. In about an hour and with $25 worth of stuff I have a fantastic toolbox and caddy that holds all my tools and spares in the top section and my battery/fuel/starter/panel and space for more in the bottom.</div><div>
</div><div>PM me if you'd like pics.</div><div>
</div><div>In the top section I carry:</div><div>
</div><div>Glow wrench with four spare plugs (two A3, two OS 8)</div><div>Glow Starter (NIcad rechargeable kind)</div><div>Exacto Knife and blades</div><div>Spare props</div><div>Prop balancer (Tower Hobbies magnetic type)</div><div>Complete sets of allen wrenches in metric and imperial (had these left over from my paintball days)</div><div>Adjustable wrench</div><div>Mini wrench set</div><div>Screwdriver set</div><div>Packing tape</div><div>Tin and medium CA</div><div>Foam Safe CA</div><div>5 Min Epoxy</div><div>Pack of #64 rubber bands</div><div>Bind Plug</div><div>Turnigy Accucel 6 Charger and cables (for Rx/Tx pack charging)</div><div>Plus some odds and ends like fuel tubing, washers and so forth.</div><div>
</div><div>I also picked up a Black and Decker starter for cheap - the type that you jump start your own car with. It comes with a built-in 110v inverter so I use that with the standard walwart chargers if I have to top up my batteries at the field for my Supercub.</div>
