    Plane Restraint

    I built one of these. Works great for starting, although I don't do run-ups against it. For that I stand in front of the stabs. This thing has served me well for a few years now. the center leg goes toward the front of the plane. Big-assed pin driven through the hole in the middle.

    IMAC hobby getting expensive

    I guess the term "expensive" is pretty relative depending upon ones desires, skill sets and budget restrictions. We're retired, so there is some required fiscal management (well i guess that applies to those working as well). In my view even a Top Notch Custom Built 40% is relatively cheap...

    Brand New PAU........Viper-ST Announced!!!!!!!!

    OK, cool....when Terry mentioned having it on a switch so one could quickly deactivate it, it made me think about a friend who didn't have any mix in his setup. When he inadvertently hit the switch during a low pass, you can guess what happened next! :(
