Control Line Scale Modeling (RCL#1759)
"Grant Hiestand, Merle Mohring and myself teamed up to come up with the information that is being presented here. This is everything that we have learned to date with the numerous models we have built and flown over the years. By 1991 we had finished the development and testing of two major systems, Single and Multi Channel controls. DSC with the use of JR radios came later in 1997."

About this title
Comprehensive, clear and very well-illustrated guide to control line scale modeling, from Fred Cronenwett of the Lafayette Esquadrille Control Line Club, St Louis, Missouri. (They have an excellent website: lafayetteesquadrillecl.wordpress.com)
"This is intended to provide the newcomer to Control Line Scale, Carrier and general sport flying an alternative to the normal fixed throttle, fly until you are out of gas model airplane. All of the techniques shown here have been tested many times by others and myself. We continue to develop new ideas and test them. Just because we do something one way does not mean that it can?t be done slightly differently."
