Rubber at Fab Feb

FAI Model Supply will once again be providing rubber and supplies to all those who pre-order for delivery at the FAB February Contests in Lost Hills, CA.  We have already received a number of orders at this time.

We will confirm back to you with an invoice indicating your total cost from the group shipment to be collected at Lost Hills or prepaid arrangements available prior to the contest via PayPal.  Our plans are to distribute at the contest registration on Friday February 7.

We will need to receive your order by January 27, 2019 to guarantee delivery in Lost Hills.  Any order/request received after that date can not be guaranteed to be delivered at the contest.

Wow ! picking air !

From : Steve Jones
Gavin Manion’s point is right on the money . . . Imagine having to pick good air?! What a concept!

As a reminder this is what Gavin Manion said ……
A few years ago Stu Darmon ran an experimental event intended as a small field trial. The rule was a legal P30 plus a 10g wheel balance weight. It certainly took the edge off the model performance and might have increased their DT rate. It proved highly unpopular with competitors, a typical comment being ” these are no good, you need lift to max”. Maybe that was just the point…
