I am sure most of us tried the Cox ARF Typhoons with the plastic blow molded fuse and the all foam powered Cox ARF planes with the two channel radios with the sticks backwards. I always tried to pull back on the rudder stick but it only went side to side. Elev. was on the left stick. Great fliers even with the .049's on them. Even retro fit a .10 throttle on one of em and flew it quite a while!


Cox had a bunch of 1 and 2 channel ARFs in the late 70s/early 80s. I still have a .020 powered single channel trainer from 1979. I also had the Sportavia and the low wing Cessna. This one was underpowered with the .049.
