    Share your Trailer Ideas Here

    An alarm install is very easy and inexpensive. I got a Viper one back in the day for my motorcycle. Basically it had an adjustable motion sensor and if the battery detected a drain (from like a light) it would go off. Those should be in the $50-60 range. Some versions have pin switches as...

    At my old club we did the following -fly around and land within 3 mins. The judge randomly drew times based on your name and whoever got closest to their time without going over won. -we rubber banded a bolt to the top of the plane and put a nut with a streamer. Take off and drop the nut...

    It's about time to ask... What Can We Do Better!

    Is that because you worked at Chuck E Cheese? They were a little young for you! I'd like to see a spot to input price on the Classifieds instead of only typing it in. I'd be nice to see it show on the title.

    GiantScaleNews.com’s 2015 “Group Therapy” Tour Coming Soon!

    I know I ran an event back in the day in Vegas. We ended up with low turnout due to winds but those that came out had fun. It's where I first met Snapasaurus. I felt bad because it wasn't as grand as some of the other events that year, but we had some restrictions at the field. Hopefully...

    PAU 30% Edge

    I may be wrong, but are DA ignitions not made in China (or similar country?). That is a standard low end connector from that part of the world. Also if they did JR plug...than what about the Futaba guys? You can't make everyone happy. (Though I'd prefer the JR plug as well and I would do...

    Glassing and Painting techniques
