I'm upgrading to a Futaba 10CAG Radio.
I have a dx6i available in very good condition.
Radio was bought in Australia and is C-ticked approved.
I've used this radio with every plane that I've ever flown and
never had any problems.
I'll throw in an unused Orange 6 channel reciever also.
Here is a great chance for someone who is starting out in
the hobby.
Asking $180 or offer.

My old Blu-Baby is taking up valuable space and it's time for it to move on. I want to swap this for a six-pack of 500ml Oettinger cans.

The plane was made by yours truly off a plan obtained from RCGroups (there was a build-thread somewhere amongst the forums). I learned to fly with it and can recommend it as a very veryeasy to fly trainer. It's had its share of dings with most of these still evident, but still does the business. It comes with everything except a motor (a Park 480, Turnigy 3530C or equivalent will do it) and receiver - I will throw in the rubber bands, and two or three puffy old 2200mAh batteries and there's a Parkzone 18A ESC still in there.

See me at the field some time if you're interested - you bring the beer and you get the plane, quite simple.

           

Here's the proof ... it does actually fly!

I tried ringing HobbyKing in Carringbah ... phone dead. I went for a drive to their shop and it was just an empty shell.
Just wondering if anyone in the club knows anything about them moving or shutting down.

Not a plane, it doesn't even fly - how useless is this invention. My eldest son and I spent an afternoon in the shed and all we have for it is a "Useless machine" (google it).
