RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
WOW! I can't count that far back! Started with control line in 1951 or so at age eight with a Testor's Sophomore 29 and a McCoy .29 (which I still have). Moved to R/C in middle 1950's with a Berkeley(sp?) Piper Cub powered by same McCoy and "controlled" (lol) by a Babcock single channel tone transmitter, tube receiver, cascading rubber powered cascading escapements and two tons of batteries. "Flights" consisted of hard "heave-ho"
; pilot running around holding transmitter up in air chasing radio contact with plane and occasional jerky turns, sometimes in the direction you actually wanted to turn. Of course, each turn meant a loss of altitude and most flights ended back on the ground with the engine still running. Gerat sense of achievement, though after each and every flight!

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
Hey Navy7603,
Thanks for your story, that was quite enjoyable, and entertaining. How far we have come, and what state of the art stuff we have to play with! Even though their not R/C, I've been buying a few vintage balsa airplane "kits" from a guy off eBay, made back in the 40's and 50's. These kits were not much more than a 3 view, and a solid chunk of wood that was roughly preshaped to look like a fuselage, and you had to carve this sucker into an airplane, and shape the wings and stuff. I won't build them, just look at them from time to time to appreciate the nice lazer-cut kits and arfs we have to choose from today. To everyone that has responded, thank you also. I haven't gotten any notices for a while from RCU about any replies, but I am glad to see that the post is still in use. Please keep it going! Will post some new pictures when I get the chance. |

You must buy a lot of jewelry! Do you have a system worked out, like a carat to C.C. or W.S. ratio? Cool to see all you guys from all over the world too! |

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
Red7Fifty, my name is doug. i've been looking for a descent .40 size P-40 and noticed that you had one listed in your fleet. i was wondering where you got it from, who makes it, (if still in production) and if not, do you know where i can get one? i really like the top flight .60 version, but with only having a .40 engine and a wife, i can't get the plane and a new engine. anyone want to trade for a wife?[sm=punching.gif] i also have:
GPM RV-4 model tech, maybe global(i think) messerschmitt with a o.s. 32. stripped and covered in tan monokote (awesome...it screams)[>:] laser models colibri .20 trainer[/color] wish i had access for pics, they all look really nice. maybe some time when i'm at home and not work...damn security settings!!if it doesn't want to fly, cram a bigger engine in it or throw it off a cliff and control it to the bottom!! |

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
Haven't done one of these lists in a while, and I decided it would be a challenge to come up with one off the top of my head (without going into the workshop). So here goes:
Airworthy (or at least close): 1. Thunder Tiger Pegasus trainer 70" 2. Sig 1/4 scale J-3 Cub 3. GP 1/4 scale Shoestring 4. Concept Models 1/4 scale Fleet Model 2 biplane 5. Dynaflite PT-26 (PT-19 conversion) 6. Byron Beech Staggerwing Needs (some major, some minor) repairs: 7. Byron Pitts 8. Hangar 9 100" J-3 Cub 9. Hangar 9 80" J-3 Cub 10. Hangar 9 Taylorcraft 11. Sig 1/3 scale Spacewalker (still haven't admitted reality) 12. Byron F-16 Falcon ducted fan 13. Byron Mig 15 ducted Fan 14. Scratch (or Cambria?) 1/4 scale Piper Tri-Pacer 15. Flitecraft Cardinal 16. Byron Pipedream 17. Pica 1/5 Spitfire 18. Clark 1/4 scale Tiger Moth On the building board (all levels of completion): 19. GP Lancair 20. Top Flite Stinson 21. Pica 1/5 Waco biplane 22. Scratch 100" Ki-61 Tony from Don Smith plans 23. Bud Nosen Champ 24. Revell PA-18 72" 25. Byron Pitts (another one) In the box: 26. Top Flight Bonanza 27. Top Flight Cessna Skylane (well, 3 actually, kits of different levels of completion; don't ask) 28. Top Flight Stinson (I need to sell this ;-) 29. Ziroli Corsair 30. Ziroli AT-6 Texan 31. Ziroli P-40 32. Byron Ryan ST-M (2, I want to convert one to a PT-20) 33. Byron Beech Staggerwing (yep, another) 34. Byron Christen Husky 35. Reid Ercoupe 36. Balsa USA 1/3 Cub 37. Doss Steed P-51D (2, believe it or not) 38. IMP Tempest 39. IMP SBD Dauntless 40. CJM Sea Fury 41. Platt 1/4 scale Bucker Jungmeister 42. Condor 80" Trainer 43. Pac Aero Gee Bee Y 44. Jamara Pilatus Porter 45. GWS Tiger Moth (electric) 46. 3SeaBees Vickers Vimy 47. Dynaflite PT-19 (another) That's all I can think of right now. Ack! Much worse than I would have guessed. Counting the multiples, it looks like I win (or lose, if you ask my wife :D ) I REALLY need to stop buying planes... |
RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
All flying, well, not at this very moment of course.
GP Shoestring W/ Saito 1.00 GP Lancair W/ Saito .91 GP Cub W/ Saito .72 GP Corsair W/ Mecoa .46 H-9 Funtana W/ Saito .91 Sig Kougar W/ Picco .40 Modeltech P-47 W/ O.S. 1.20FS Pacific Aeromodels Laser W/ Zenoah G-23 (German Kit,don't know brand) Sptifire W/ Magnum .61FS Several SPAD combat planes, all of which need constant attention. Would like to have more, but simply don't have any more room in my garage storage closet. I think I'll be able to find more room elsewhere pretty soon. RickVB, Nice Staggerwing! Hopefully, in the near future, a company will come out with a Staggerwing ARF. If, and when, they do, I'll be one of the first to buy! I just don't have the time to build, or I would already have one. Nice job! John |
