“I
enjoyed building this kit. (Yes I am one of the few left that likes
to build kits. I have yet to buy an ARF) It flies great using a SR
10 cell Max 500 pack and E-flight Park 400 out-runner. This plane
has fast tracked me into a whole new enjoyable aspect of RC flying.
Hoping to build other SR kits in the future.”

“I just wanted to
share a few pictures of my SR Batteries Kit. I attended the
Rhinebeck Jamboree in 2005 with me Siemens Schuckert D.III and won
Best WWI. Thank you for sponsoring the event and putting you SR
Eindecker E1 up as a prize. I have just completed it and would like
to share a few pictures from its first day at the field. I have
attached a few pictures for you, just as my Siemens I try not to
have the same airplane that everyone else has at the field. I have
done the color scheme in a Turkish pattern.”

"Thought
I would share a couple of pics of my just completed AcroPro. It was
a B-Day present from my wife about fours ago. I finally got around
to building it. Thanks for a very well engineered kit, fun to
build. Mine is covered in silk which I dyed myself and then trimmed
in tissue. Kind of ol' timey. Thanks again
for a nice kit."

"Just
finished my Eindecker and thought you might like to see it. I
deviated from the antique covering and opted for something
different. Thank you for a great kit. 44 years of kit building and
this was one of the most rewarding one I've ever done. SRtex
covering and G26 with a 2200 mah SR receiver pack and Futaba radio.
Many thanks again."

"The
kit is just so well designed and planned, that anyone should be able
to build it. It even balanced without extra weight except for the
prop nut. I need to get my thumbs in practice prior to first flight.
Larry, thank you for being so helpful, and for doing such a great
job designing the kit. I have enough confidence to try a scratch
build scale project. I love the Golden age racers, and want to build
a Weddell Williams racer from William Hostetler plans. However, if
your next kit is anything near it, I would definitely buy your stuff
anytime."

"Thought
you might like seeing my Eindecker in its completed state
after its first flight. As you can see we did a Solartex
covering with some added features to make
it look authentic and in battle.The first flight went great and this
baby will get many more flights this
coming year." -

Above
are Carissa and Evan Hunter with their SR Bantam kits.
Carissa built the SR Bantam and Evan built the SR Bantam
Bipe. Their Dad, Seth Hunter, had this to say: "The
Bantam kits from SR were Cari's and Evan's first airplane kits. They
went together very well with a little of my help.
The instructions and quality of the materials were both
excellent and both kids are learning to fly in local school yards
and at the Mercer County R/C Society Field in central NJ. Cari is
nearly done building the X-250 and has a Cutie on the shelf for the
Winter. I use SR batteries in all my transmitters and airborne
packs. I've found the performance of the batteries and support from
SR outstanding!"
We think that Cari and
Evan did fantastic jobs building their SR Bantam Kits! Great
job, guys! Keep it up! |

"My
friend Bill Sheppard (who loves to build) built the Cutie for me! This
is a picture of Bill and me with the
finished product (that's me on the right). What a great airplane! Last
weekend I took a friend out to the flying field to help him get started in
R/C. He had bought a GWS SlowStick. I brought along the Cutie, and I have to
tell you it was a much better trainer than the SlowStick."

"I
think it is the only Acropro in Australia. This one creates real
interest whenever I fly it. My workmates are amazed at the speed and
agility of the Acropro. I have some large scale models and two

in my models. Thanks for producing such a great model."

"We have been using SR batteries in our
gliders since around 1983-1984. We choose the SR battery packs for
their reliability and long life and have used both TX and RX packs
over the years. A couple of years ago, I
bought a Cutie and then the Acropro. Both models are excellent in
quality, fun to build and fly great."

The pictures above are all of
Tim O'Mahony's SR Eindecker E1. We think that it looks awesome!
Here's what Tim had to say about his SR Eindecker E1:
"Well, I finally worked all the kinks out
and got my first full flight in today. The Eindecker performed flawlessly!
After 5-6 minutes at altitude getting a feel for her, I spent the next 5
minutes or so shooting touch and goes and low fly-bys. It was awesome.""As
far as ease of flying, I would say that it would make the best trainer I
have ever flown. Slow, stable, what more could you ask for? The only rough
landings and touch and goes I had were from me
trying to horse it around. If you just let it go, it will grease the landing
every time." |

"Here is a photo of my Reaction 54
Turbine model.""I
have the only one in Australia. As you can see I use SR batteries
exclusively. I use a 5 Cell Pack for the RX and a 4 Cell pack for the
turbine pump. With all this money tied up in a model airplane, I don't want
any battery problems."

"I have been in this hobby for many years and have built many kits.
I am thoroughly pleased with the kit, accessories, and support you guys have
given me during the project. This is one of the best manufactured, and
thought-out kits I have ever built, and it was a joy. The laser cut pieces
were perfect and the instructions could have been followed by a 8th grader.
Superb! I
cannot wait until you guys develop another one. I will buy it."

"This (SR Bantam Bipe) was truly a
remarkable kit for a first time builder and it is a fantastic flyer.
The quality of the laser cut wood, the supplied hardware, and the
outstanding construction manual are really first rate.
Thanks again for developing such an excellent kit and providing great
help for someone new to balsa. Looking forward to
building another SR kit!"

"I only trust SR
Batteries for my L39. With the money that is invested in jets now a days,
you can't fool around with low quality batteries. An SR battery pack is
the heart of my model, not only in quality, but the support that I get
from SR is the best."
