Well, it sure sounds like everyone had a great time and class was educational and informative as usual. Plus,...it's not every day you get that much tallent in one classroom (Dave, Don and Chris) sure wish I could have made it. Anyway I hope to find myself attending the VA contest this year,..darn the bad luck last year on the way there.



Hey Ron,

I am either going to do the dual pack set-up for more redundantcey or just go back to using Duralites in my pattern planes. I am leaning toward using 2 TP-1100 Lipos, any suggestions? It was suggested to me not to use Lipos with the 4-stroke engines as their are many reports of battery fatigue resulting in failures. It was also suggested that the use of Lipos is just fine for electric powered aircraft and very much prefered as a set-up. I will be migrating over to electric as soon as I can get all the stuff together to do so. It would have been great to hang out with you and Dave again,..ahhh maybe the NATS and hopefully not from a chair.

Chis, sorry you will not be attending Greensea,...hope to see on the contest circuit.


Best Regards,
Bill Holsten
