Look for bowcases, rifle cases, golfclub cases, and ski cases. I made my own travel case out of masonite, epoxy, and triangle stock, but it was time consuming and now it's all duct tape anyway. I saw a perfect golf-club case not too long ago at a local hardware store - didn't get it and now

That's what I use and am happy with it. Getting equipment can be a little challenging but not unmanageable. I have my Airtronics TX converted by Airtronics so I didn't have to buy a new one either. My .02 worth. -Original Message- From: Davin Bentti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent:

If you want an excellent golf club case check out SKB. I have one for my clubs and it is very nice. Excellent latches, O-ring seals, nice handles and a roller. I think it would make an excellent glider case. jtm - Original Message - From: Silas Collier [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Dave Seay

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!, Everything Paul Naton says is true, I was there. What he did not tell you was what you received for a mere $25. First of all I got two days of great contest flying and palling around with like minded psychopaths. Secondly I received a schnazzy t-shirt that you don't have.

For those of you in the Los Angeles ara, I just picked up my Cirrus gyro at the Hobby People in Encino. I believe they had a few more left (probably it would be a good idea to call first). Brett Brett Jaffee: [EMAIL

[RCSE] gyro setup (Sidewinder)

2001-08-15 Thread jaffee
Can someone give me some install tips on mouting the Cirrus gyro in a Sidewinder DLG? Is it typically mounted in the cockpit area, behind the servo, or back in the fuselage? Do I have to remove the case for there to be room for it? Also, I notice that it needs to be mounted on its side to be
