Default TUCSON 2008 Raffle Plane DONE!!!!
Once again many sponsors stepped up to donate their time and product for this years raffle plane.
For this year the plane is a Composite Arf Yak 55.
This plane is ready to fly and also comes with a Fromeco charger, Plane Wrappers cover, and Carden wing and stab bags. Here is a list of whats in the plane

DA 170 with KS 95 rear exit cannisters

Complete Fromeco battery system with chargerand 8 ball volt meter

JR 9303 radio with 8711 servos and 9100 receiver

J&J Tailwheel

Composite Creations Pilot

SWB servo arms and self adjusting rudder tray

Tru Turn Spinner

Plane Wrapper cover

Carden wing and stab bags

The entire plane was painted by Clint Sweet back in Florida. Clint has done alot of work for me over the years and he stepped up once again on this project. Be sure to keep all of these sponsors in mind during your next hobby purchase as they are helping to support the hobby that we all love. It takes a huge amount of volunteer hours and money to put this contest on each year and the money raised from the raffle helps to support the event.

Tickets will only be sold at the event and you do not have to be present to win so if you want a chance give your buddy some cash and have him buy some tickets for you. Or hope on a plane and get out to Tucson. I will post the cost of tickets on Monday.
