Looking for Stamov Relatch Hook
From: Pete McQuade
Pete McQuade would like to buy one or more Stamov Mechanical relatch servo towhooks for F1A. The version I currently have is from 2008 . (I.e., it does NOT use a strain gage to determine hook unlatch.) A newer version of Stamov e-hook that would work with a Magic Timer might also fill my need. Please contact: PeteMcQA2@aol.com
