At our club, Wyoming Modelers' Park, we supply the airplane, radio with buddy box and fuel for students. We have 7 Kadet LT-40s with OS .46 FX/AX with Futaba and JR radios. We also have 3 Tiger IIs with OS. 46 AX. We find we get more people to take the plunge if we supply the equipment. When they solo they can decide what type of trainer they want to get. We then give them some buddy/stick time with their model and turn them loose. It really helps get younger flyers who don't have the money to invest in a trainer package up front interested in RC. As a matter of fact, 5 of the LT 40s and the Tiger IIs were built by kids in the summer Young Aviators program.
