I built an RC glider once, got pretty good at it. so I built a cessna with 4' wingspan. Took months. All hand cut balsa and covered in paper and dope, real old school.
Lasted bout 40 seconds. So I said, hey those RC cars are pretty cool ..... Anyway you might like this: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/RU1T3rIwg7s" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

T28 is a great trainer even though it is low wing but the Apprentice is good too.
The A3X or whatever is good stuff - I'm not sure of the SAFE stuff though - haven't used it. In my experience it is more frustrating than anything else but I only have experience with Futaba's thing they had on the Nexstar which I promptly removed. |

Try advertising on RCgroups.com or RCUniverse.com. The listings are free and you can say 'local pickup only'. I've done it very often and it works good but don't expect to get what your Dad thinks it is worth. |

I think what he is asking is barely more than the cost of the engine alone. :confused: |

Used RC stuff is not a money maker... What you have it listed for seems reasonable to me, especially from a blowing it out perspective. You may even be able to get more out of it. On RCuniverse - their ads allow for offers to be made lower than what you're asking and you can put a low ball shield in there. RCgroups is a more a traditional simple listing like your flyer. It'll get you exposure to a wider area and a wider local area too because a lot of RC folks use those websites. Also the local clubs usually have listings or will list in their monthly newsletters for free. The RCGroups and RCuniverse though I have had a ton of luck with and are very popular with the community for buying, selling and trading much like Pelican is for us. |

I see they have a few different airframes with the tech, but I don't think a EDF would be a good trainer. Not sure anyone would have time to hit the panic button, but it is probably good for someone getting into EDF airframes.
I saw it had three different "laws" to quote Airbus as to what it will allow you to do. Beginner is limited in bank and pitch. I have seen video where people pull the throttle and hold the panic button to land relatively drama free. Our nearly 5 year old can fly the RC tethered planes and land them OK. |

Hangar 9 sells the Extra 330 with the Zenoah GT80 for over $1600. I'll send him an email with the links you provided, Mike. Thanks! |
A little dawn patrol action with my F-86 this morning.

I put a couple of test flights on it today prior to putting my boys on it but I think it is going to work very well for them. |
Getting ready to head out myself. Battery in the Radio is charged up and Charged up all the packs in my gassers last night and charging up the packs for the helicopters now. :)

Got a new one.
Mirage 2000 (Freewing). 6S battery, 5000mah. 110mph. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1418259680.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1418259706.jpg |
Not as exciting as some of the stuff here, but I just snagged a seriously tweaked Axial ax10
I'm gonna tie balloons off to it and use it as a moving shooting target platform.....and I might destroy the golf course with it on occasion as well http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w...pshcoa8yoj.jpg |
Custom RC10 here. Have a couple runners, but this one is a shelf queen.
2D for me!!! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1418321711.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1418321797.jpg |
I love me some original RC 10s, best toy ever made. I got one for my 14th birthday I think. I didnt want to leave the house until I got it together.
Yours looks largly orignal |
are those anodized parts or did you dye the vinyl bits? Looks awesome! I used to a 10L.
