Steve,

QLK's is the pattern kit brand of Hobby Barn in Tucson. A nice fellow by the name of Rob is producing them from the original molds they had back in the 80's. Basically, Hobby Barn is "open" again. They have very nice Arrows too: the Super Arrow (more traditional in length) and the Arrow 800 (more akin to the Granat with a closed pipe deck and side tucks in the rear of the fuse to allow cooling air to exit. Exhaust is directed downward). The Arrow 800 evidently has 800 squares of wing area. There are threads here with pictures of the molds and fuses.

I don't have Rob's contacts off the top of my head but a quick search here should reveal them.

That didn't take long. Full Super Curare build thread. :D

Rob's RCU handle is "hrdflite". Call him though, he's not very good with RCU PM. Here's the full info:

I think there are the latest from his build.

The white balance was off in his camera (see his thread) but it was a quick fix. Second pic is soft. Last pic is of the mold... [8D]

They have Magics too!

Steven,

Rob can be reached at 520-747-3792. They are closed Monday, TUE/WED 11 AM to 4 PM, Thur: Closed, FRI/SAT 11 AM to 4 PM. Rob does excellent work and I have purchased several from him. Yesterday, however I had to place a transaction from 3/15 in dispute with my credit card company. I will not say anything else, but hope this can be resolved. My guess is that Don RCAiir may be able to make one in the future.

Guys,

I spoke to Rob at Hobby Barn today. There have been some issues that were out of Rob's control. Things are good now with some changes coming in the near future. I'm sure Rob will be posting soon. He will continue making the Hobby Barn line of kits. If anyone wishes to contact Rob he can be reached at: [email protected]
