Hi TEMAC friends! I hope you're all enjoying the Spring flying? I've not found a new club near us yet, but can fly small stuff on our property.

A new flying friend did an RC conversion of a Dollarama chuck glider and challenged me to do one, also. And wow - are they fun to fly! Like a cross between a mini pylon racers & pattern plane.

3 channel (TAE) on 2S just using left over parts (8A ESC and 2 x 5g servos.) Most of the "construction" is demolishing the airframe with a soldering iron to make space. I'm sure you could follow my pics to create one yourself if you wanted to.

They really do fly amazing! Seriously. Champ for size comparison. Flying weight with 300mAh lipo is 112g

Someone asked for a clearer picture of Rudie, our new Zone Director.

Found this in the photo gallery on our website.
Rudie is on the left and some other dude is on the right.

ps: Rudie has lost a fair amount since this photo from 2018.

I believe that is the battery hatch to Kirk's Carbon Cub.
Did you happen locate a 2200 mah battery near it?

General Discussion / Found: battery hatch cover
Last post by PDS - June 13, 2025, 07:25:16 PM
I found a gray plastic battery hatch cover and put it on the lost and found table.

I took a photo, but the file size is too big for me to upload.

If you wonder if it might be yours, message me your email address and I can send you the photo.
