Thanks. Actually I want to clean it up so that I can sell it. I'm getting out of RC into other hobbies, and I don't want to sell anything that doesn't look good and work properly.

I have an OS Max AX .55 that I used just a couple times. I replaced it with a smaller engine so it's been sitting on the shelf for about 3 years. I just took it down and it still turns over nicely,...

RE: Coming soon to the US

Hankytalk, I'm not familiar with Grapner but 2.4 Ghz radios are getting very popular here, so I don't think you would have any problems using it here. Having lived in other countries myself I can...

RE: Coming soon to the US

Werner, I didn't fly RC in Germany because my job and other things took up most of my time. But I used to go out to the field in St. Leon and watch them fly. I wish you the best of luck in finding...

RE: Coming soon to the US

Hankytalk, you mentioned that you live near Heidelberg, which town? I lived in St. Leon-Rot for 5 years and worked in both Heidelberg and Seckenheim. We had a small flying field just outside of St....

RE: Coming soon to the US

Hankytalk, you seem to be a very skilled craftsman and I'm sure you can find employment here in the US. Your English isn't perfect, but it's easy to understand what you're saying, and it will...

RE: Coming soon to the US

I'm glad that someone from the West Coast finally spoke up. Yes, we have an actor for a governor and our taxes are higher than I'd like, but Northern California is a great place to live. In the San...

RE: Second plane... need help

Why not consider the World Models Sky Raider Mk II ARF? It sells for $69.99 in the US and can be flown with a 40 size engine. It's a low wing tail dragger and I found it easy to assemble and great...

RE: Goldberg Tiger 2 vs Sig Midstar 40

18 years !! I don't think so. With any luck he and the child, boy or girl, will be out at the field within a few years, with his wife thankful to get them out from under feet.

RE: Goldberg Tiger 2 vs Sig Midstar 40

Thanks for the info Mike. I'm really looking forward to getting the kit and building it. Although the new kits and ARF's are probably improvements, I prefer the older models, especially those...

RE: Goldberg Tiger 2 vs Sig Midstar 40

I just bought the forerunner to the Tiger off Ebay. I bought an 80's kit called the Sky Tiger. From what I've read it is what Goldberg first came up with and the Tiger series are updated versions. ...

RE: Goldberg Tiger 2 vs Sig Midstar 40

I'm very much a beginner and have built two Goldberg kits, a Falcon 56 and a Falcon III, both purchased off E-Bay. The Falcon 56 seems to be an early version, probably from when Goldberg owned the...

RE: Goldberg Tiger 2 vs Sig Midstar 40

Hollywood, you have a real advantage since you're willing to build. Most new flyers prefer ARF's, which limit their choices and give them planes that may or may not be build correctly. I'll be the...

Hollywood, you've picked a good first plane in the Goldberg Eagle 2. Our club had a variety of recommended trainers until I brought out my Eagle 2. After the instructors all took a turn flying it...

RE: Can you help me decide?

RCKen, you've put together a very good list. I'm a beginner and I've flown the Goldberg Eagle and Falcon and both were great (and you might want to add the Sr. Falcon ARF, which I've also owned). ...
