R/C Planes & Helis

Multiplex Royal Evo 9

royal_evoThis is the radio I fly everything with. 9 Channels and infinite programmability make this a top notch radio for everything from Simple 2 channel planes, 6 channel CCPM helicopters and complex multi flight phase DLGs & Gliders.

Mine has the synthesized transmitter module which allows me to tune to any of the available frequencies to match my aircraft as needed. I try and stay on Ch. 46, but every so often at big events the need to switch can happen and I'm set. Great battery life and awesome ergonomics make this a treat to hold while flying. You can rotate the gimbals to match the angle your fingers or thumbs need to get good straight up and down motion out of them.

 

T-Rex 450

t-rex_450My T-Rex 450. This heli was given to me by a friend, I've yet to really fly it much. I need to paint up a new canopy for it, its kind of a shame I've never painted a canopy for myself, only friends!

It has a GY401 Gyro, Scorpion brushless motor, and digital servos all around. All Aluminum head and Tail, carbon fiber chassis.

Weasel Pro

weasel-topWeasel Pro from Dream-Flight. This is the original Weasel Pro kit, all EPP and covered in UltraCoat. Stickers and lettering were cut out in vinyl on my plotter.

I built this one to fly at the 2009 WeaselFest in Goleta, California. This is an annual get together held by Weasel owners now for many years. My vacation and the 09' WeaselFest were in sync and I got to go meet the designer of the Weasel, Michael Richter, and tons of other great Weasel pilots. Traditionally this is held at the birthplace of  the Weasel, Ellwood Bluffs in Goleta.
