SINCe I have prepared this column for the January 2003 issue of
Model Aviation, I want to wish all our readers a happy, healthy, and
prosperous new year!
I know that this issue will hit the streets in late November so it’s
just in time for the holiday season. If you have not arranged with
Santa for your well-deserved RC Giant gift, it ain’t too late!
If you’re looking for an appropriate stocking stuffer for that
special friend or loved one, following are a few ideas that any
Radio Control (RC) Giant flier could use. Best of luck to you!
1) A heavy-duty switch assembly
2) An 1800-2400 receiver battery pack
3) An expanded-scale Voltmeter with built-in load or one with a
separate load button
4) A tachometer
bob holman plans started in 1961 as a service to all Scale
modelers. Bob is the US distributor for all those great Brian Taylor,
Dennis Bryant, and Mick Reeves plans and accessories. He also has
a complete line of scale drawings from England and Fred Spring
scale drawings from Australia. In addition, Bob offers laser-cut

Two of his newest RC Giant offerings are from Brian Taylor: a
94.5-inch North American Harvard and 83-inch Supermarine

and calls for a 120-150 four-stroke engine. The Spitfire was
designed for a 1.5-cubic-inch, four-stroke engine. Accessories for
both are available.
Bob makes some beautiful awards and plaques with his laser
equipment. For more information, give Bob a call at (909) 885-
