Phil,

Essentials are:-

All of the plane and whatever it needs to assemble (looks like wing bolts in your case) - Not so obvious, most of us have forgotten something vital at some time.
Transmitter
Charged batteries
Fuel and a way of getting it into the tank
Glow ignitor
Starter or chicken stick
Insect repellent

Spare prop and plug are handy to have, even more so if you have a wrench to fit them if needed!
You will need to get a 25mm frequency key at some time, I'm pretty sure there are couple for visitors though.

Something to clean the plane when you've finished. Paper towel + kitchen spray.

I also keep a bunch of small tools in my flight box, mostly screwdrivers and hex drivers. I don't take glue to the field as I prefer to do repairs at home. Usually take 2 planes though.

Heaps more you could take but with a little help this should get you going.

Hey Terry,

Your list looks good, i think i have all those bits and peices and i just got back from the hardare store and bought myself a tool box, a little to big for my liking but it should hold all my bits and peices with no effort :)

Now just to charge my batteries up fix my CG and hope that my plane passes inspection :D

Phil.
