House Of Balsa .20 P-51

Like others here have done, I didn't use the aileron cable/snakes. This kit's been around a while, and that requirement is a holdover from the days when servos were gargantu-sized and it was the only...

Foamie on Rails

Here's a pic of my Open B "rail" plane. The wing is sparred and taped foam (NACA 0012 airfoil), 48" span, double-tapered. Power up front is a Norvel .25. I would have flown it today, but our local...

Jka Questions?

I've got the Mustang here, along with the Mig-3. Great flyers. I'm thinking about ordering a B model Mustang kit. Have to build up the 2610 fleet!

JK Aerotech P-51D Maiden

OK, now contrast that model with this one, a House of Balsa .20-sized Mustang. Note the smooth cowl--it's electric. A fine flier, too.

Hey, Darin. Good 'seeing' you, too.

The new field situation is moving along, so it looks like we'll be set sometime soon. At the old field, where you were, the forest that was across from the...

Hey, Darin. I'll try to post a pic this evening. I haven't done anything to decorate it yet. I just recently finished up a House of Balsa .20-sized Mustang and I really can't tell much of a...

JK Aerotech P-51D Maiden

I had the maiden flights of my JK Aerotech P-51D over the weekend. It's powered with a Norvel .15BB. What a sweet handling plane. This is the first foamie that I've built and I was really pleasantly...

1/2A Shrike and servo size

I'm in on the NVRC Shrike racing, too. I got two kits through the group-buy arrangement. I fly with Prince William Co. RC Flyers, but I'll be showing up for the races.

Any word on doing speed 400...

SMALL forum Vs Half-A forum

I'm with those in favor of opening up the forum to S.M.A.L.L. stuff.

House Of Balsa .20 P-51

I'm more than halfway through a HOB .20-sized P-51 conversion for electric. Power will be an Aveox 1406/2Y brushless motor running direct drive with a Graupner CAM 5.5x5.5 on seven 2400 cells. No...

I have talked with other pilots and they have echoed what ramcharger says. The planes will fly well.

The parts count in these kits is not huge. Follow the instructions, use common sense to...

Top Flite P-40 Old Red Box Kit

A different time ... I like the red box kits for their historical significance, and for sentimental reasons. They were the kits I drooled over at our hobby shop as a kid while flying Kadets with my...

VIP Racer photo

That D99 will rock on a B40. My larger fast plane is a Cavazos Sailplane Designs Vortex with a Kontronik Fun 500-21 on seven CP2400s. Very fast, maneuverable, easy to land, and very precise and...

Lanier Dominator 200?

Lawrence, one more question: Is there also going to be 1/12 Warbird racing the same day? I've got a couple models that I could fly for that event as well. Thanks.

Lanier Dominator 200?

Thanks. Have you flown one? I'm curious what the real performance difference is. I know, I know, there's a serious coolness factor to the V-tail. ;)
