Not a very popular hobby these days. What is the best website to purchase C/L airplanes and accessories? Or the most popular?

Here's another excellent site, mostly for CLPA (Stunt) and supporting products.

www.rsmdistribution.com

RSM is run by Eric Rule, a great guy. He manufactures his kits, and has access to tuned engines, which he also lists in his on-line catalog.

CL is still alive and well around St Louis, and on the west edge, around KC and Topeka, KS.

http://www.stunthanger.com/smf Best control line site in the world. Of coarse I own it so I would think that. 1600 memebers think that too

There is also:

Okay, I mentioned Eric a few posts above, but I do think he is worth some more attention...

www.rsmdistribution.com

...which does an excellent job of kit prep, far more than justifying the difference from the prices we senior-flatulate types remember from 'back in the day' when the kits first appeared, die-crushed out of waterlogged warped iron wood. GOOD catalog! Great guy in charge! Laser-cut pieces that drop out of the blank when you lift it, AND FIT! when you join them, and are out of unobtainium-grade prime balsa.

CL is alive and well, but we keep it a deep, dark family secret. Is you is, or is you ain't one of the fambly?
