Default RE: Need source for canopy for Curare

Yeah - everything Kraft is now bye-bye. I found mine by watching ebay etc. Although old they really work well and are great value when you can pick them up. All you have to do is change the Kraft plug for Futaba or JR. Years ago (late 70's) I flew pattern competitively (in England) and used the then state of the art Kraft Signature series radio (still have it - and still prefer its control sticks even to my 12X!!) - so I had some stuff left over from then (including the Curare I flew in the British Nationals!) - and some I got via ebay - brand new amazingly enough. If you are the patient type and can watch ebay (or other for sale lists like this site) - they are great retracts and SO easy to install.

I typed "electric retracts" into Google and found a couple of current vendors. You might want to check them out.

I'll post some photos of mine so you can see.
