On June 26, 2017, we started sodding the new parking/pit area. Soon pilots will have the entire 4,500' x 100' runway to fly on.

R/C Combat - that's the other guys blue ribbon.
Victory!
Jonahan Cannon
This is what happens when you pull 50 G's on a combat plane trying to cut the opponent's ribbon.
That's Aldredge's orange ribbon wrapped around Cannon's detached wing.
He got the cut at all cost! This is why we keep the cost low on these planes.

   42" wingspan. 3s 2200mah battery.820kv motor. 40a speed controller. Orange Rx T-six 2.4GHz DSM2 transmitter and receiver. Flys almost 3D style. David Gibson  |
| Well, I been at it again. Been out in the shop tinkering and actually made something besides an airplane, I don't like having to bend over to put the wings on my planes so I copied a thing I saw in Perry but thought that was too much money ($135) to pay for it. David Gibson |

Maiden Flight 6/7/2015 at the RCAM club field.
“Stand way off in the next county” scale French “Dalotel.”
Scratch built from my own plans using three-views of the real aircraft.
56” wingspan, powered by a Saito 56 four stroke, Wt ~5 lbs.
Only out of pocket expense was glue and covering material. Balsa, parts, engine, etc. recycled or from estate or club sales.
No clue how long it took to build....I work on them when I feel like it.
NOTE: Only one copy of the full scale was ever built.
Wait 'til you see the cowl when its finished: Two “cheeks” that look like jet engines!

Red Bull: Edge 540 from a Goldberg balsa kit. About 5 months to build.
76” wingspan, OS 91FX two stroke, Futaba gear. Wt about 8 lbs (give or take). Don’t keep logbooks but I’d guess around 75 flights on it to date.
