Swap Meet !!! Belleville, Illinois this Saturday !!!!

I wouldn't use those red E-Z just's on 1/2A, the line spacing is way to large and you might over control.

They are a good handle for .19-35 sized planes though.

What is the yellow winged plane off to the far right of the picture? I can only see the wing tip.

You can try..... I did it for a while before I was told not to. I was able to keep things in the air most times, but was crashing all the time while stunting.

If you just fly level laps it will be fine though.

Edit: Can you fit 4 fingers through the 1/2A handle? I only use my fingers up to the second joint. Basically just enough to hold the handle.

Any .010 tanks?

Didn't see any 010 stuff.

My haul wasn't quite as extensive as Travis':



Though I WAS tempted by a nicely-built, all-black 3 Meter "Bird":



But I resisted, and so......



The "Blur of Action"...Travis and his Posse on patrol:



And, apparently, "Bad Attitude" the Sea Fury veteran of so many area Swap Meets, FINALLY got adopted:



WAAAY too special for little ole me:



Harkening back to the thrilling days of frantic button-pushing:



TUBES...we got TUBES !!! Probably can still pick up an old Radio Show or two:



And...General Happiness:

There I am in the blue shirt next to your Uncle Wayne, followed by my two boys

Hope you had a great time and found great deals. We had one last weekend.

Good stuff guys,

Next time you need to stay ahead of Travis, Kim!


You both did well, I grab those 1/2A perfect wheels every chance I get as they look the part on vintage models.

Travis, I hope to see you burning up the circle in the near future.

Oh Yeah!

This particular Swap Meet is becoming an annual deal for me and Uncle Wayne. The drive up and back gives us a nice long visit, and a chance to trade the old stories that never seem to get old. I forgot to mention the McCoy Red Head .35 I got from Travis, so that was my other acquisition. Wayne traveled real light this time, only buying some extensions for some World Engine Servos he was recently given.

I was digging fairly deep in some junk boxes to find some of those wheels, so I was having a good time !!!

Didn't find any props for John on this run, but will keep an eye out.

Later! Swapped-Out Kim

I know, I know...they're made from congealed playdough and rejected booby-pins....but I think they're pretty and like looking at them!

The McCoy .35 I got from Travis waits for it's first run at the Skunk Works' new indoor test facility. Running out of time this morning, so maybe a test run this afternoon.

Also gonna try out the new-looking Big Mig .049 I got at the Belleville Swap Meet.
