JACKSONVILLE,
ILLINOIS: Tethered
Electric Radio
Control (RC)! Harvey
Scott of Jacksonville
loves to build models.
He uses a 12-volt car
battery to power the
airplane and an RC
transmitter for
elevator and throttle.
Harvey plans to
build a higher tower,
12 feet tall, so he can
do loops and figure
eights. He says he can
fly all afternoon on
one charge of the car
battery. Pictures and
information were
supplied by Robert
Tendick.
Tell City, Indiana: The Airmasters Radio
Control Club has a member, John Hagedorn,
who will be soon blazing across the sky in
his P-38.
