Yeah, I should switch to white spinners [

Actually, when I decided to use that wooden tool box for a flight box, I was going to forego the electric starter. All of the reviews of the Alpha said how easy it was to flip start the engine, so I figured I would go with a small flight box and a chicken stick. That didn't work out so well, and I decided I needed an electric starter. On the left side of my flight box, I mounted a mini power panel, and I have a 7.2Ah battery buried in the lower level of the box. It is tight, but I get my starter, hand crank pump, glow charger, hand tools, spare props, rubber bands, and everything into that little box, with my TX hanging off the side. It works out pretty well. I have a separate plastic tote that I carry my repair supplies in : epoxy, sticks of tri-stock, packing tape, CA, kicker, razor saw, exacto knives, etc. Lately, I haven't been loading my "repair tote", because I haven't had a crash in several outings (jinx).
