The FMA is the newest, and seems to be the most versatile.
It is very configurable - plugplay or custom cook. Costs about $130.
It only does one pack at a time, however --- but it will handle motor packs

When I think of spoilerons, I think of ailerons (ie, at the TE) that move upward in
unison to spoil wing lift. Move downward, they are flaperons.
"spoilers", OTOH, are panels at or near mid-chord that act in unison to spoil lift.

I bought some three-strand twisted wire from FMA.
I also made up some myself at minimal expense. I bought wire of the

Brian from Raptor Aerosports has what I have to say is going to be the plane
that will be the hard to beat aircraft this season.
I call it the "Friggot Flinger" but he has yet to name it. This side arm
plane is not just a modified HL. Designed from a plan form from a famous HL
