March E-Flight News



Spring
has sprung, at least here in Georgia and I am starting to get out of the hanger and on to the field. At least now I don't have to look like the Michelin man when I go out to fly.

I just got back from two very large swap meets. One in Burlington NC with 200 tables where I saw a lot of friends Click here to see photos from the Burlington and then the largest in the world with over 820 tables in Perry Ga. Thanks to all of you who stopped by to say high. I have posted a few photos of the Perry show so just click here to see the photos from Perry and the Atlantahobby.com area. What you will see is only 1/2 of one hall. There were two halls (with the other one being larger) pluss an indoor flying area in a third hall. Thanks to Dad for shooting the photos.

There is a lot of new stuff on the site and I am adding more each day. I have added a large selection of very light wheels for your park flyers. Click here to see them

If you need screws, nuts, bolts, washers and such look at all I have by clicking here. I have added over 100 SKUs in this department and about went blind doing the typing.

Some very cool new planes you will see below. The Fliton products pronounced "Flight On" consist of the Flubber and Jumping Jack. Funny names but excellent craftsmanship on both of these planes and the option of transparent covering is really cool.

The Extreme Mini 3D is also new and just a hoot to fly. All laser cut balsa construction and ready for your 3D adventures. Fly it with only a little 15 glow or better yet add the AXI brushless and 2, 3 cell Thunder Power Li-Po and it will perform with the best glow planes. Best of all it is only $89! But be aware I have only about 100 so get them while you can. Yes it's an ARF.

Speaking of brushless I have been adding like crazy to keep up with the demand. You will now see the very popular AXI line as well as MEGA, PJS, Mini AC and Jeti Phasor in addition the already popular Astro Flight line. If you don't see the one you are looking for drop me a line as I probably have it.

Lipo chargers continue to be an issue with Astro having the most trouble keeping up.I have been told that I might get my December orders in April so if you want a Astro 109 don't loose your slot!. I am however starting to get the new and improved Kokam Lipo-403 Charger in stock. I like this one (see it below) as it charges up to four LiPoly cells. Has six current settings that can handle a wide range of cells and pack capacities.

I have a killer deal on DVD's but only till my supply runs out (in stock DVD's only). Buy any 2 and get them for only $20 each! That's a savings of over $20 when you order 2. Just use the promotion code below when checking out or call me to place your order. At this price get some for your friends as they make great presents.

Look for new lower prices on Castle controllers as I just placed a large order and I have also started adding the Jeti advanced line for all of the Glow to Electric conversions.

Stay tuned and once again I do appreciate all of the kind words (and business). My little shop can only grow if you are happy and spreading the word to your friends. Remember if I don't know something I will find out and I will not be undersold so if you want something and see a lower price cal me first.

Good Winds and God Bless!
Cliff

Extreme Mini 3D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a very unique airplane!  The laser cut construction is a work of art. At first it looks like a profile plane but the body has thickness for the batteries to fit inside nicely. For all you nay sayers out there, please view the video.  This aircraft is normally powered by an O.S. .15 CV-A, and uses Hitec HS-81 servos and 555 receiver along with a 270 mah battery pack. 

Best of all, the entire set up is very inexpensive and will provide those who want to learn 3D on a budget a means to do so." Click here to see the video. Fly this airplane with Glow engine or the AXI and Thundr Power package to fly the Mini 3d in an all electric fashon. Get them while they last and onlt $89.99!

Brushless Motors from AXI, Mega, PJS, Astro and more!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just can't get enough of a good thing and as I have told you before "Once you go brushless you will wonder why you have waited so long". Most all are in stock but they come in and go out fast. I am getting them 50 at a time but the MFGs are having trouble keeping up and with the dollar in such bad shape over the pond the prices are bound to go up as the newest shipments come in.

Combine these fine products with a Castle or Jeti brushless controller for a winning combination. Click the link below to see the full line of all of these motors and let me know if I can get one for you.

Cirrus 2 meter Sailplane ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Cirrus 2M glider (ARF) is designed to give you the most performance, reliability, and flexibility found in ARF gliders today. First, we started with a proven airfoil design and built around it a double shear-webbed, double spar, D-tube wing with an aluminum center joiner for maximum strength. See more details by clicking here

Zing Wings for your kids (and you) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With spring here it is time to start thinking about getting the kids out in the yard. And there is no better way than with a Zing Wing . These rubberband gliders are like no other plane you have flown. Launches over 100 ft high are common and long flight times in calm conditions.

On a good thermal day watch out as I have had flight times over 10 min ! Get some for your kids (and yourself). 5 packs are only $15.99. These make great birthday gifts or handouts at parties! Give them a Zing Wing and you will be a hero.
