I opened the web site for the ROLLING Chicken Stick a couple days ago on another thread but need to start a new one of its own.

I have had incredible response since opening and want to thank everyone for all the kind words and of course all the orders. This is a great RC tool and I am sure everyone that uses it will be pleased with it.

If you would like to read some of the posts, here are a couple of threads where the action took place....

Please consider trying one of these...I know you will like it and it may just save a finger.

Thanks again.

ps, for those that have asked if that R-3 flies....here's a couple pics.

I recently got the tip of my middle finger on my right hand almost completely cut off. Right through the nail and bone exposed. Man did that hurt.

14 years off flying and I have never been bit. A few weeks ago that changed. I'm lucky that all that happened was the tip of my finger got screwed up. I will now only be using this style of device to start my engines.

I use it and I would not start a RC engine without it...even a nitro.

Thanks for the post.

I got a nasty bite from a 28x10 falcon prop on a motor that backfired. Almost needed stitches. I ordered a RCS and I'm looking forward to using it.

I've been using a paint roller for months now, I think this product is better and safer to start an engine, since I already believe in it I will be placing my order soon.

Thank you for producing it Richard.

ordered one for me and one for my dad the other day. Never used anything other than a glove before (and most times not even a glove), but after to moving into a big twin, I thought it was time.
Dad lost his whole thumb to a DA120 several years ago.

I ordered some also -

Pure genius! I just bought my son his first kit plane to build and it will have a 40 size engine and I think this perfect for a safe start by hand. Nice job, sure beats the old chicken sticks u drag.

Here's my take, for what its worth.

I have been that guy who thinks he is invincible and since I flip with authority and use a 1 o'clock drilled prop, I have always believed that my method won't allow me to get bit.

Now I haven't been bit yet in the years I've gone gas, but I do require the use of my fingers in my job as a Windows/Vmware Server Engineer.

If I lost a few digits on my right hand, I'd have one heck of a time continuing in my career.

So with that, I've decided to put "the man card" aside when it comes to starting gassers and purchase one of these, and I'm comfortable with that decision. As soon as Grip Style #3 comes back into stock, I'm ordering one.

Its not a chicken stick when you know of a friend who lost most of the digits past the first knuckle on his dominant hand.

Its a pain/hassle/career saving stick.

Exactly why I don't flip by hand anymore, I need my fingers for my next job.

I will order as soon as the 3rd handle choice is available.

Because I have had so many request for the Grip Style #3, I am planning on doing a batch of those. It will be maybe one month till I get them done....lots to do. I will keep everyone informed.

Thanks
Richard

ps everybody, what color should I make the grip....I am thinking a neon....green, red, orange...??

Just ordered mine. Looks a lot better than the old style chicken stick or paint roller and won't damage my props.
