RE: RE:

Glow engines were my first choice but decided that the way 2x 120-150 size engines gulp the fuel that I would save the cost difference in about 18-20 flights. So, I went with the CRRC Pro 26s. ...

RE: RE:

I had a bad run of luck. I sold 3 of my planes. I hadn't crashed an airplane in years and the very next day I crashed 2. Or should I say I destroyed 2. Then I got a little gun shy and didn't fly...

RE: RE:

Al:

RE: RE:

As far as I can tell, having just built the same plane from scratch, it wouldn't be necessary to put the formers back in. The strength of the fuselage is the sheeting, which is 3/16th to 1/4 inch...

RE: RE:

Is there anything with it other than just the frame?? Retracts, control hardware, tanks, anything like that?? Kits are going for $400+ if they are the original Bud Nosen and not the A&A. I've been...
