Next Batter Up Is...

My next transmitter project will be a poor old Proline that was a wee bit neglected but shall be given the love it deserves. Here are some initial snaps of the before and initial take-apart.

Have fun,
Andy

Stick it to the man!

What!!! No Fluoride???

Nice packs!

The stick is still very, very nice.

 A little dirty and tired but all that will be fixed at Andy's spa.

Huge thanks to MAN!

I wanted to thank Model Airplane News for giving my gimbal project a four page spread in the March 2011 Canadian Edition of Model Airplane News. I was informed that it is also available for online subscribers. It is not in the US print version.

They are some of the nicest people I have ever dealt with and featuring a small project like mine gives great hope to myself and others looking to start building r/c equipment locally.

A sincere thank you,
Andy

Thank you Debra and John!

The Kraft Single Stick is Complete!

Got the Kraft SS finished and had a hoot testing it with my Blade mSR this weekend. Man it's fun to fly a micro heli with a single stick! Here are some snaps of the final transmitter and some build shots.

Keep Flyin'
