The website is still the "old" website. Its also already been posted that this summer is when the real changes will happen and production will really start. More to come after the Nall as the new owners are headed there!

Default Re: Aerotech R/C Models is BACK!

I ordered an Aerotech 35% Edge in Jan from Starrflight. It came in March, just 36" sheeting some real soft 3/8th sq and plans. The wing tube and LG was included. April most of rest came, ply parts etc. Canopy came by itself from west coast. No 48" sheeting, Had to beg John for instructions. Tom nusta e-mailed him 25 times trying to get all the kit parts. I finally bought all the wood I needed and started building, but my heart isn't in it. The wheel pants were CRAP so I sent them back to John last Monday. Am hoping these guys will help me out on them. They were way too big, had been patched several places, had 1/4" holes in them. Was gonna fix them up, but decided weren't worth effort. Don't know how guy could include them in a kit.
Does anybody know if new guys will be using same addess, e-mail, etc.?
If anybody knows of new address or whatever, would appreciate a note.
Thanks, Dick Snyder n52ds@verizon.net

There new phone number is 563-321-8455, keep in mind that the new owners are not responsible for the dealings of past, but I am sure they will do what they can for you within reason.

Good luck to the new owners! I wish you all the best. What is the situation with Aerotech Pitts Model 12S Python ARF? Will it be continued?

Best regards,

Otto

I reposted some of the important info over on RCU as an Aerotech thread popped up there asking questions about the new owners and since they are having fun at Nall I thought I'd help out.


Now lets talk about the "changes" to the 40% Su-26. Rob can you shed light on them?
