It made my day to come home to that kit so soon. I will order again, and I will encourage my friends too.

Barak ISRAEL" August 2004 ~ "Reflections on the 2004 JR Challenge Hi Dave, I've had a few days to recover from the travel and reflect on the 04 JR Challenge and it occurred to me that one of the most overlooked parts of the trip was the performance I received from my power system. I say overlooked because it was such a non-issue the entire week. I arrived Mon afternoon too late to get any flying in; Tue - 6 12 minute flights plus some time on the ground making system adjustments - at the end of the day both flight packs were still in the 6.2 volt range under load; Wed - a duplicate of Tues. Thurs and Friday competition flights I flew on a single charge. What's more, the TX pack I installed in my 10x the week before went the entire week un-charged and never dropped below the 10v level! My only regret is that my flying wasn't up to par with my battery performance. Thanks for great products and great service, keep up the good work, hope to see you in Muncie for NATS!

It's nice to be out flying again with the right equipment. I also wanted to pass along kudos for your employee "Chris" who took good care of me when you were off to a show. He answered my questions and filled my order in a hurry (using some very good creativity I might add) to get me up and flying within 2 days. I got to fly all weekend due to Chris' hustle. This is the stuff that will make me continue to buy from you guys. Thanks, Dave Kelly" March 2004 ~ "Hey Dave, Just wanted to send off a note to praise Chris. My last order was incorrect, and all it took was a call and Chris was making it right. Thanks for the great service. Mike Hawker" March 2004 ~ "Aloha Dave. I received my order on Saturday, thank you. It's nice to see you handle your orders efficiently and promptly. I really appreciate it! Best regards, Al Battad" March 2004 ~ Bob Aberle writes: "Dear Dave, Just a follow up to our meeting at the recent NEAT Fair. By the way the January 2002 RC Modeler will have the first published report of our NEAT Fair. Dates have already been set for next year; they are Sept. 13, 14 & 15, 2002. Hope to see you there again. My reason for contacting you, at the Fair I purchased an 8 cell 720 MAH Sanyo NiMH battery pack from you. I just used this new pack the other day with excellent results. In my application I'm drawing 5.3 amps (at the start) on a Speed-300 motor geared 5/1. First flight was almost ten minutes with the motor running at full throttle the entire time. After landing the battery was only mildly warm. I have been fast recharging this pack at the field at 1.4 amps which takes an average of 30 minutes to reach a full charge. Do you feel the 5.3 amps is OK for these cells? I'm very impressed with the performance. Bob Aberle AMA 215 NEAT Fair Event Director Yes, they can take constant drains up to abut 6.5 amp range very well." October 2001 ~ "Boy Dave! The new AAA 8 CELL nimh pack I got from you for my Wattage "Mini Max" is terrific! just thought I'd let you know .. I swear I flew for 19 minutes this chilly morning on my front lawn ... keep up the good work .. I am almost finished building the "Radical Edge" .................. Sal Manganaro" October 2001 ~ "By the way, I got an unbelievable 31 1/2 minutes on the 8 cell 720 pack this morning. (Wattage "Mini Max) is this the norm? Flight was at partial power most of the time with long power off glides...still, this is great! Sal Manganaro" October 2001 ~ Re: 2700mah "I bought (2) 2700mah NIMH batteries from you two weeks ago for my 40% Edge540. Since it is filled with 8411's all over the plane, I was concerned the batteries would have enough endurance. With a 5.7V regulator, I am getting 6-7 flights per day and flying all weekend on one charge. I can't get the same performance from my 2400mah Duralites. Tim Davie" August 2001 ~ Re: (3800RX packs) "Hi Dave this is Bruce Swartfager I flew my 35% staudacher yesterday with the 3800 metal pack and it flew great no trim adjustments just couldn't have done any better. It has Brison 6.4 twin up front and did it sing I am excited as you can tell. I figured up how many oz. of torque i am running and it comes in at 1250 oz. That is a lot and so the question of metal packs not providing enough amps is a myth. I have 612 oz. alone on the wings of torque. Just thought i would pass this on thanks Bruce will looking forward to the Orbit charger. Later Bruce, Altoona Iowa (Most are flying the 2700 in this application but the 3800 works great too where you want a little extra capacity or nose weight)." August 2001 ~ Re: (RRC-300 packs) "Dave, Hi, I picked up a 7-cell pack of 300 mAh NiMHs from you at the SWAC, back in May. You asked me to let you know how they worked out. THEY ARE FABULOUS !!! Light weight, powerful, and getting better with every cycle. I'm currently using them in a GWS Tiger Moth powered by a GWS DX-A and GWS 9 X 7 prop. Perfect combination! I'll be ordering some more packs soon. Thanks a lot. Happy flying, Gary" August 2001 ~ Re: (RRC-300 packs) "Thanks Dave for the lite stick packs. They are great! My Pico Stick never had this much power. We can do inside loops with this guy now! I haven't timed em' yet, but I bet I get 15 minutes out of these guys. Thanks again, Alan Black" August 2001 ~ "Dave, I received the Flair Moth last Monday. The box was in great shape. The kit is everything I was expecting. Thanks for the great service and thanks for importing the Flair kits. I am a very happy customer. Thanks Ed Nelson" July 2001 ~ "Hi Dave...I ordered 2 battery packs a couple of weeks ago for my Lite Stik (7 cell, 300 mah NIMH & 8 cell, 300 mah NIMH). These two packs are absolutely superb for the Lite Stik! With the 7-cell pack I can achieve 20-25 minute flights just coasting, and floating around at 1/2 to 2/3throttle...With the 8 cell pack I get 18 -20 minute flights, but MUCH more robust performance. I can ROG with the 8 cell pack in 2-3 feet easily! The plane can climb at an amazing rate, and be a dot in the sky in no time! I'm thoroughly impressed with these battery packs, and you can bet that you'll be hearing from me again for additional battery needs! (Yep, I get MORE flight time with the 7-cell as opposed to the 8 cell pack! I believe it's because the current draw is greater when I use the 8 cell... then again, I'm able to DO things with the 8 cell that simply REQUIRE more current!) Great batteries... Thanks Dave!
