    Both Hostetler projects went together fine but they are certainly not for a new or novice builder. One of the most challenging aspects of building from plans with little or no instructions is the building sequence. I can tell you that several times during the course of both builds I had to...

    I have been using a Frsky x10S for the past 2 seasons and I am very happy with it. I am using the RX8R Pro receivers in all of my planes including a 35% Hostetler RV-4. Takes a little getting used to in terms of programming and I have only scratched the surface of it's capabilities. I have also...

    Scale JTEC 1/3 Scale Taylorcraft

    There is almost no comparison to the flying characteristics of the Decathlon and the T-craft. The T-craft is the most gentle and predictable airplane you will ever fly. The Decathlon is very twitchy on the ground, not so with the T-craft. Of all the airplanes I have built and flown the T-craft...
