Aerotech R/C Models is BACK!

[sweetpea]

That is a fine airplane. I have one and love it. And those who have had the LUCK of flying my plane have loved it as well and now with the New Owners focused on the flyers I can once again proudly where my Aerotech Hat and Shirt.



I have also finally finished the repairs and installation on my 35% Edge 540 V1. Can't wait to see this plane in the air again as well.

AGAIN.... This does NOT mean that we are open for buisness yet!! i just figured that it would be nice to see someone get a jumpstart on their new aerotech build and be able to fly one this summer! you will not believe how quickly these go together! thanks again for the support and encouragement guys! this sure is a tremendous group here at FG! matt

I am currently flying one of the Aerotech 42% Extra 300 planes that Dean Nistettler built. It is the best flying plane that I've had so far! Good job guys. BTW are you moving lock stock and barrell to Clinton, IA?

Congrats to the new Aerotech. This is great news for those of us that like to build kits. More options.

[smokin]

we are moving everything from fla to ia! we will obviously be dealing with balsa and composite vendors outside of iowa but NOT outside of the USA!

Cool man, its cool to have more kits in the market especially for an old school guy that likes to build. Maby I missed it as I skimed over the previous posts but are you going to have a web site up?

[OnTheEdge]

Great to hear there will be more choices in kit models out there. All the best with your new company.

Yes, the site is supposed to be the same address for now and will be updated in the weeks to come (no timeline set yet though). I think after the Nall is when most of the updates will be coming after reading through all these posts on here.

Great news. I had the Cap on mly list but when things went nutty over there I backed off. I look forward to finally building the CAP. I would also love to see some type of USRA legal built up kit available. Sounds like you guys may be able to produce something along those lines...

Good Luck to all three of you

Congratulations Matt and company! With your attitude, personality and work ethic I know the new Aerotech will be a huge success. See you next week!!

This is the all NEW AEROTECH. I know no one has said anything negative yet and hopefully it stays that way. Let's put the past behind us and keep our eyes to the future cause that's what it is all about. I'm glad to be apart of a group of guys that feel the same way I do. I'm all about new things and these three guys know that. Everyone knows I'm a big Giles fan so let me be the first one to say that we are in the works on a 46% Giles 202 121" wing span 110 from the cowl to the rudder. That's 14 inches longer than the one I'm flying now. WOW

On another note to all my Dalton friends, I'm not going anywhere. I'm still building Dalton's and Aerotech's so don't hesitate to call me about building either manufacturers plane. Matter of fact I will be posting a build on a pimped out 40% Sukhoi-26 for myself by the end of the year. I already have a list of mods that will make this big bird lite and strong, so keep your eyes open for this thread.

I'm happy to see that there will be another kit vendor again. I'm 100% sure there is a market for the right kind of product from the right kind of company.

From a customer service standpoint I think the best thing you can do is be engaged with the community and be transparent. If you see that some mod is being done by builders and it improves the experience of building or owning the airplane then credit them and incorporate it into the design. Talk with builders, encourage build threads, be available for support on forums as well as by e-mail.

Hardware packs are a great idea. Throw a couple of nice vinyl graphics in there as well with your logo.

I'm waiting for someone to offer pre-cut covering, the way they do for ARF's. You could have a "Signature" scheme for each airplane and make the covering available as an optional extra as well as pre-painted fiberglass parts.

Someone needs to do a Slick 540, Yak-55, MX2/MXS. Lots of good options out there now for IMAC airframes that are not being kitted.
