I'll be bringing a few 72 mhz RX & moudule pairs with me so that we have more options to help us get more T-28's in the air.

As you can see in the pic, I have a JR R600 PCM RX and module on Ch19 and Bob Richards came through with two Futaba PCM R148 RX's with modules (Thanks, Bob!). One set is ready to go on CH33 and the other will require a crystal swap to CH30 (Bob also supplied these crystals).

So, for anyone who wants to borrow any of these to get flying in the "gaggle" either Wednesday or Thursday evening, catch up with me at the field. I only ask that you be sure to return them when you are done having fun!

33 confirmed and 11 possible = 44 T-28's from the "poll" above.

I'll bet we have more than 60 and the challenge will be to see how many we can get into the air at once......

Carnage - some certainly possible

But the Fun & Laughs will be HUGE!!

I hate you guys..... I have gone all these months avoiding the T-28 craze, and now you go and do this.

Last one left East R/C this afternoon, went together at the field and has a few flights on her now. I'll be on JR 2.4.

Does this mean I can go to warbird meets now ?
