Found: Heavy Silk Span and MORE!

[peabody]

Edy and I had dinner with Buzz and John Brodak this evening and I asked about silkspan....
He got 30,000 sheets of it about 10 days ago.......order early and often.

Also, he has found an new and improved ARF building company in China.....says the prototypes have been really good......he has 500 Ringmasters coming....300 ARF's 100 ARCS and 100 electrics.....

And the P-40 will be back......he is paying a premium for higher quality covering.....

Great.

[Andrew Saunders]

AWESOME!! I have been wanting to get an ARF Vector 40.

Hi Rich.  I just received 10 packages of the medium Silkspan and it appears to be pretty good stuff.  There are two sheets per package. I just ordered the medium.

How can you tell the new ones from the old ones? How many old (warped wing) Vector 40's does he have left? Are any of the new Vectors coming through electric?

There were/are a LOT more straight and great Vectors than warped....and the company took care of any issues.....
As far as I know, no electric Vector ARF/ARCs but he does have a nifty laser cut set that allows very easy conversion to electric.

Where is the heavy silkspan?  Brodak only lists the light and the medium.

Give them a call....he might have dropped it when it became scarce

What about the first question, how do you tell the new ones?

With John Brodak you don't have to worry.  He shipped me a new ARF Pathfinder wing when mine was warped.  If you have any issues he will make it right.  Great service.  Sounds like his health is good.  I sure hope so.

Dick when I ordered  mine over the phone, I asked about the heavy silkspan because I like using it but was told they only bought light and medium.  I wish John had bought some heavy..

I guess the title of this thread gave us false hope.

[peabody]

Yup.....sorry about that
I heard from John that he only had light and medium .....
Oh well

Sorry for the false report

John should just sell all of it on eBay. 30 sheets went for $193 today.
