Default Jtec Radiowave Presents the 2009 Huckfest Series!

I am very excited to announce that JTEC RADIOWAVE is partnering with FLYINGGIANTS.com to present the entire 2009 FLYINGGIANTS HUCKFEST series!

The addition of JTEC RADIOWAVE's title sponsorship will allow Flyinggiants.com to bring our members top notch coverage from all five of the tour stops. This sponsorship will also ensure that all of the Huckfests surpass the legendary status they have achieved over the last few years.

Al and Kevin Young are the father/son team who own and run JTEC RADIOWAVE. Both have been great supporters of the Flyinggiants for many years now. In fact, Mad Max's iconic Yellow Extra 330 is a JTEC RADIOWAVE Extra 330. (Sadly the big yellow airplane met its untimely demise at my hands last year at the Ohio Huckfest, BUT I have been working on its replacement: a brand new JTEC 3.2 Meter Extra 330 that will debut at the Huckfests this summer!)

JTEC RADIOWAVE make several sizes of Extras ranging from a 3.2 Meter Extra to a 2.5 Meter Extra specifically designed for an 85cc motor. All of the airframes JTEC RADIOWAVE makes are very well built. A true testament to the quality of the JTEC airframes is the number of JTEC airframes used by the demanding IMAC pilots. Al's planes have a wonderful reputation of flying very much like much more expensive "kit built" airframes. JTEC airframes are serious 3D birds as well. Simply ask FG Staff member Tank his thoughts on 3Ding a JTEC 3.2M Extra 330 or the many other FG members who own and love their JTEC RADIOWAVE birds!

Although the JTEC planes are truly ARF models, the construction techniques used are very much like a traditional kit-built airplane. JTEC planes are built with balsa sheeted wings, stabs and rudder, and the entire airframe uses aircraft grade plywood and balsa. The quality of the construction and structural integrity are top notch and are what you would usually expect to see from a kit built by a master builder. The latest versions of the JTEC RADIOWAVE Midwing Extra 330 airframes are pre-lightened and finish up at very light RTF weight!

Flyinggiants would like to thank Al and Kevin for believing in the Huckfest series and for helping make this year's Huckfest series the best it can be.

If you're looking for a new airframe, consider the JTEC RADIOWAVE line of airframes. You can be assured you will get a great flying plane and great customer support from a company that supports the hobby and supports the Flyinggiants! What more could you ask?

For more info on these great airframes as well as JTEC RADIOWAVES' entire line of EDF Jets please visit: JTEC RADIOWAVE

We Are extremely excited to be partnering with Flying Giants for the Huck Fest series.

We're looking forward to going to the huckfest events and getting to know some new people and hanging out with some old friends. With the help of all of the flying giants members hopefully we can make the Huckfest even more of a success.

Thanks,

Al & Kevin

It's great to see good folks like Al/Kevin step up to sponsor the Huckfest Series. Way to go, guys!

You can bet that the Raleigh boys will attend at least one of the events and Vess Props will donate props to all of them!

Thanks, and I hope to have My JTEC ready for STL. If i was just assembling it, it could be done in a week or so, but I modified it a bit and re-did the covering. (You know I can't leave anything alone)

But if it's there, your more than welcome to twiddle the sticks RESPECTFULLY of course.


I have the stabs covered, and one of the main wings, So I'm not too far off.


She will eventually look like this:


PS: The pink is actually light purple, for some reason, it looks pink on here.

LOL, Don't worry sleepy! As long as their isn't any SFG"s on your planes then their fine with me! I am just mentioning the SFG"s because you probably remember my little fun-time with my tribute at the SNAP A HUCKFEST! Pieces flying everywhere! So remember as long as it doesn't have SFG"S you can let me fly it. LOL. Hope all is well. No worries Sleepy if i do get a chance to fly it then it will be like a "trainer-cord" session, i will make it look like i don't know how to do any 3d, just simple pattern stuff. LOL. Take care!

Awesome news!

I have been Flying airplanes from Al and Kevin for several years now, and currently have the new 3.2m Extra 300 mid-wing as my primary IMAC bird, along with a Panzl 330 for 3D, and man o man can it 3D. Both of my Radiowave birds will be down at Joe Nall in less than a weeks time, so feel free to come on up and ask any questions you have!

Another big thanks to Al, Kevin, and family for their continued support of FlyingGiants! If it were not for great companies like theirs and the membership we have, FG wouldnt be here! Thanks fellas!

This is awesome news! Glad that FG and Radiowave/JTEC have teamed up to bring the Huckfest to a city near you. I have known Kevin and his family for quite some time now; They are just down right great people. I have yet to find many people in this hobby who are dedicated to bringing the customer the best built, best flying airplane on the market like the Young's.
Great job guys.

Andrew
