Hey Everybody, As many of you have heard from me and read in Tim Lampe’s column in Model Aviation recently, I’ve been working to get a version of the Quik-V available in a laser cut wood short kit to fill some of the void left by the Quik-V6 ARF from Great Planes. This new version is the Quik-V7 and...

Thanks to everyone who was able to make this years Winterfest such a success. The Speedworld club really appreciates the continued support of our races. Al Pilon (club President) and I are so proud of the way our club comes together to put on these events. I want to especially thank Roy Andrassy and...

Hello everyone. Only a few days till the Winterfest. The club is looking forward to hosting the race. Thought I'd post a couple of things. Roy has been doing a great job of handling all the entries and we're looking good. Would like to see a few more in EF1 if anyone would like to fly both that and ...

Ray,

Write a proposal. The topic of allowing composite wings in 424 has been thrown around lately but no proposals have been submitted.

Jim

Hello All, To follow-up on this topic. The rules adjustments needed to allow the Jett 424 engine option are complete and in the rules on the AMA web site. I want to thank Dub Jett for working with the RC Pylon Contest Board to develop an engine option for this class while maintaining the current lev...

See above.

That proposal has passed the vote as to whether the proposal sho...

The 424 Engine Committee of the RC Pylon Contest Board has been working to deal with the lack of an available engine for the 424 Quickie Sport class since the loss of availability of the Evolution 46NX. The Committee is made up of five members of the AMA Contest Board. Looking for options on the mar...

Eric, Thanks for posting. These are great fun races. I wish I could have made more of them the past couple of years, especially since this beautiful field is 4 miles from our house. I am ashamed. I promise to get to at least a few this season. Seriously, these are the kind of local fun races we need...

HI All, I'm starting this thread with the below topic and plan to add to this as new issues need to be addressed. I will ask that this be made sticky and will make a normal post to point to this thread when additions are made. ********************************** It’s come to my attention through rece...

Marty is correct. I apparently misinterpreted the information I received that, an agreement was in place to allow us to use only our AMA number when, it is actually only agreed to "in principal" and that we "will be able to" use our AMA number instead of the FAA number when the agreement is final. F...
