    Balance Stands

    Something I have not seen is any kind of information on balancing stands. I built my son and I a set of these stands a couple of years ago. I figured at the time, they would serve their purpose well for what we were flying at the time. It so turns out that I built them a little larger in...

    JR XG11 and RG1131B Receiver

    JR XG11 Programming

    Well, my new JR XG11 arrived today and after a couple of hours wrapping presents, I needed a little break. I decided to pull the radio out of the box and start getting acquainted with it.

    Your Opinion-This is not a "Which radio is best" thread!!!

Last year after nearly loosing my 260 on first maiden voyage, I chose, (due to having so many Hitec rx's, and other equipment) to drop kick the p.o.s. Aurora that had been giving me fits for...
