Default RE: Found two old control line planes in the trash today


ORIGINAL: Bass1
Looks like a heck of alot of fun[8D].Wow! It's been awhile since I've flown controline (40 years) but I'm ready to try it again![sm=49_49.gif] Shoot, My model aircraft roots originated in control line. I would love to build and fly a Nobler or a Barnstormer again for "Nostalgia sake". Of course I would have to find/purchase a Veco 29/S for power!!
You could probably find a used one on an auction site but the original engine in the Nobler was the Fox .35...which is still available.

If you can step away from the nostalgia part, many are having great success with modern engines like the OS LA series, mostly the .25 and .40, in their Nobler.
