My first Cox engine about 1961
Yes alot of years ago for sure. I worked in a H/S briely part time as a kid. Had to get working papers as very early teen. Anyway just started to build balsa flying models. New Space Hopper came in and just had to have it. Owner let me use layaway and paid it off. Engine was a beauty and different from the rest. Ran it and was hooked. Engine was very easy to use and found home in Midwest Sattelite 320 FF ship. Today I have a copy of that same kit and two Hunter versions. Hope to build one of them down the road. Plus have several FF timers.

Would you happen to have a need for a couple "time it" timer mounts? I received a couple in an Ebay lot that I have no immediate use for. There yours for postage if you want em. Do you still have the hopper?
