Brit,
I think jagn was referring to the fact that the OP was considering buying the ARF version, and supplying it with the Futaba 4YF radio system which (according to Jagn) comes with the micro servos as the flight pack. That's how I took the post, anyway. In fact, he followed up by suggesting to buy the RTF version instead, and the correct servos and such would be included..
OK, to set the record straight, here's what I was saying. In Post #3, I began by observing that the micro servos were insufficient for the SuperStar. I then noticed that if Rich was actually looking at an "RTF" version, he might not realize that it already came with an adequate radio installed. I was not suggesting that he get the RTF instead of an ARF. In Post #4, Rich apparently confirms that he had that misconception.
After a few moments of reflection, I thought, "If Rich is going to be waiting a few months to fly, he ought to assemble an ARF instead of buying an RTF trainer." That way he can upgrade the radio and engine. Hence, Post #6.
Minn-
It is possible that two clubs within 10 miles of Masontown indicates the scenario you describe. I can think of a couple of other scenarios. First, AMA's club locator seems to have one disadvantage. For most clubs, the address is the home address of the contact person, not the flying field, which may actually be several miles from the listed address of the club. The two clubs that Rich found could actually be 40 miles apart, but appear closer due to this quirk.
Second, the club locator pulls up all chartered clubs, regardless of whether or not they actually have an RC flying field. Here in the Cities, there are clubs like the scale club and the electric club, that are chartered clubs but don't have their own field. When I punched in the zip code for Masontown, John Brodak's "Flying Circus" club comes up as being 5 miles away. Because Mr. Brodak is a dominant manufacturer in the control-line segment of the hobby, I assume this is actually a control line club. Not sure if this was one of the two that Rich found, as there are two others that are w/i 10 miles.
Either way, Minn's advice is sound (as always). Check out both of them. I live equidistance from two fields. I joined my club because the people seemed a lot nicer and more helpful. You should also check to see what the club's land status is. My club owns its field, but many clubs rent and development eventually causes them to lose their fields.
Rich, it sounds like you are on the right track. Have fun and feel free to ask lots of questions. As you can see, there are no shortage of answers here!
