Thanks Don-- I'll check that out. I'd love to support the Tustin cause.

Yes I still have my Skylark! It's on the bookshelf next to my college degrees & other life memorabilia. Due to the fact that it's crashed so many times and had rubber motors explode inside it and yet never saw much damage, I've retired it so I can build & fly something lighter! It's built like a tank and flies like one too. (So yes, I really do need a gram scale...)
