RE: Re-use radio equip from RTF?
John from Hog Heaven hobbies in Sturbridge. THere is a classifieds ad for:
Hobbistar Select .60 RTF, complete new in box, sealed packaging. This is a new plane. Best deal right here. Futaba 6EX PCM1024 6 channel radio with 6 model memories, 127DF FM receiver and 3004 bb Futaba servos factory installed, never ran .65 LA engine, $399, or $375 for the club members online, so I'll beat it, $325 shipped, take the $50 savings. Money order/check is fine, Paypal we split the fees 50/50.
40 Tower Trainer .46 Select Trainer, Tower Pro .46 ball bearing engine, Tower (Futaba) radio on channel 52, 127DF FM 7 channel receiver, standard factory installed servos, complete. The box is rough, will pack securely. A box cutter slit the wing covering, but it's been covered with a Tower decal. Not a big issue, but that's it's cosmetic flaw, you can add your own learning to fly. $260 Towers price if you gave them $15 a year to get free shipping and coupons, so I'll beat it, $220 shipped, $40 savings on top of discounts.
Seem like decent prices. Is the Hobbistar worth the extra $?
Thanks again!!!
