I can't afford that much excitement. . . .

It may be difficult to get anyone very excited about new engines with
E-power coming on strong...

I would be willing to spend more than what I paid for what I have now. :-)

 

The stories I heard 10 years ago was that Airtronics was designed here and
then shipped overseas for production. Probably the closest thing to a US
radio right now.

 

I approached Dub Jett at the '95 Nats regarding a rear-exhaust 1.20 engine
for pattern. He did not seem interested at all. But that was then.....
Maybe if he got enough suggestions/requests he would see the light.

Hi Gang,

 

Okay, So how much would you be willing to spend for a domestically made
radio, both top of the line, and Sport?

 

Why isn't there a domestically made engine for Pattern ... there was almost
a K&B 150 (really a 140) and it was a sweet runner, until Lockhart's two
irreplaceable prototypes were utterly  worn out.

Maybe RJL could be helped along.

I just had a talk with Bob Boucher at Astro-Flight, about the requirements
for a Pattern E-motor, and he was receptive.

Already, Steve Neu makes what look to be suitable motors, though I don't
have any track record on their Pattern useage.

 

act locally, right?
