Are there any manufacturers of .049 balsa control line kits? Have been searching to no avail. See alot of old ones for sale on e-bay, but would like new manufacture. Just can't seem to come up with the correct words for a good search. Thanks in advance.

PS - What mail order companies handle them???

Would like to have them under the tree for Christmas.

There are several very good 1/2A kits at Brodak http://www.brodak.com/

Sig Manufacturing makes a few 1/2A control line kits. For example the Sig 1/2A Skyray is a good plane. I built two of them for my boys and they are still flying nearly five years later.

They should be available through your local hobby shop or order direct from Sig at (641) 623-5154 or www.sigmfg.com

Hope that helps,

Many thanks guy's, you have me pointed in the right direction now. [sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif]

Check out this company; they see to have reproductions of a lot of the classic models. www.blackhawkmodels.com

does anyone remember the Wizard or the Lil Satan they seem to be only on ebay if your lucky used to fly the heck out of those .049 planes where do you get plans or kits for these older models?

Dear Big Tim,...

I believe Brodak has the rights to some or all of the old Goldberg control line kits. They recently re-released the Little Wizard as a kit. Go to Brodak's website (listed in a post above) and type in the kit number CLP-71 in the search box. You'll come up with available plans as well as complete kit. According to the website they are in stock at this time.

Good luck,...

Hope that helps

Sincerely,
MrSteve

P.S. There ia an entire "thread" about the Lil' Wizard on the RCU Control Line form.

P.S.S. I've got a NIB kit of the Lil' Satan as well as an extra copy of the plans if you are interested.
