RE: It was only a matter of time.....

RE: Which member's advice do you respect?

Easy answer. Sorry I do not remember his handle, but the guy from Israel is hands down the best support/help I have seen. At any rate, the only one from Israel I am aware of on this forum. PLUS, I...

RE: No more ARF's for me

Well boys, who's been watching the "progression" of technology in RC? Glow is being replaced by gas and surely electric appears to be a strong contender for the future. ARF's are here to stay...just...

RE: Maybe the Tower Hype is True?

Tower has great customer service. I have ordered over $20,000 in products from them over the years. In two slight mistakes they corrected the problem IMMEDIATELY. Without Tower, those in remote areas...

RE: ESM current retracts

The Sierra retracts I bought for my F7F are strong enough to support a tank. A bit heavy but what am I gonna do? Wish I had the loot to buy Sierra across the board. It take a while to get them so be...

RE: Are all RC forum's activity in decline?

1. Controversial attitude by some make it difficult to express your opinion without often being attacked. For example, the build vs. ARF dialog is ridiculous and completely irrelevant, but how often...

RE: RC Plane Guys Are Cheap!

Chistec, have to agree with you about many (not all) plane guys. I've sold a number of planes on RCU over the years. As shipping cost has gone up and up, selling even a NIB is painful. The offers...

RE: I Challenge...........

Wonder what is going on? Honestly, once in awhile accessing a particular thread requires a second click but other than that no problems at all. I check RCU twice a day, every day.

RE: Why Gassers are more addictive or better than Glows e?

Never used gas, and never will. I like scale, and a strong 2 stroke can generally be tucked very nice into most, especially radial, cowls. The cost of glow fuel; what a laugh. I spend $35 just...
