Default RE: Stock Tanx

We were at the club field a couple weeks ago and one of the members said he had to clear out some of his stuff and would we be interested in buying a Goldberg Extra 300. He said it had had many different engines on it but that a OS 108 would fly it great. He had flown it with a .61 but it was underpowered. It had the servos still hooked up and battery pack (no good) and RX. It looks surprisingly good and never has been wrecked. My son-in-law also bought a Futaba radio from him with the RX. I have the Futaba T6XA, something like that, and it's very similar but it only holds three planes in memory and has no exponential. We gave him $50 for the plane and he gave him $50 for the TX I think. He also bought a OS .91 four stroke for $90 from a member and it runs great. So I'm just saying check with club members in the area first. Most are like Volkswagon owners, they always have more than they can use laying around and maybe you can find a deal like we did. I've found that this is a rather exspensive hobby. I've been at since last march and have spent over a grand already. And two of my planes are spads!
