Hobbico Acquires Estes-Cox
JANUARY 21, 2010
Founded 51 years ago, Estes is well known as the worldwide leader in flying model rockets. The company operates a manufacturing plant in Penrose, Colorado, known as the “Model Rocket Capital of the World.” Champaign-based Hobbico is the world’s leading manufacturer, distributor and retailer of model hobby products, including radio controlled models, plastic model kits, trains and other hobby and toy products. The 100% employee-owned company sells products through hobby shops, toy stores, chain stores as well as its retail subsidiary, Tower Hobbies. Hobbico owns many famous hobby brands including Revell, Monogram, Great Planes, HeliMax, MonoKote, Real Flight, Top Flite, Duratrax and others. “Estes has ventured into many different hobby product areas in the last 10 years but has remained a leader in model rocketry,” said Mike Fritz, Marketing Director for Estes-Cox. “We want to continue to bring exciting and innovative products to the model rocket community. Our unique new partnership with Hobbico will allow us to create even more new rocketry items that hobbyists will appreciate.” Estes’ design, engineering and production staff includes many talented professionals who have been with the company for many decades. They will continue to manage the creation and manufacturing of all new and existing products from their facility in Colorado. “Virtually every model rocketeer got their start with Estes products,” said Wayne Hemming, President of Hobbico. “Rockets are an important foundation for all hobbies. We are committed to giving Estes-Cox the support needed to continue its 51-year tradition of innovation and quality.” Estes Industries was founded in 1958 by Vern Estes when he developed a machine that massproduced solid propellant model rocket engines. This invention gave people a consistent and reliable way to launch model rockets. Later the company branched out into mass production of balsa nose cones and adapters for model rockets. Estes began selling model rockets by mail in 1960, and was merged with competitor Centuri in the mid 1970s. In 1996, Estes acquired Cox Hobbies, best known for its control-line airplanes powered by the company’s miniature glow engines. Over the years, Estes has also acquired product lines from Hi-Flier kites, Pica Products and Sterling Models.

G-Force ProStart released (patent pending) for nitro Helis JUNE 17, 2009
The G-Force ProStart will take starting nitro engines to a new level in the industry by utilizing worldwide availability of cordless drill/drivers. In fact, many pilots around the world have been starting 50 and 90 sized engines using cordless drill/drivers for years. Benefit and convenience of using cordless drill/drivers for starting nitro engines. Todays cordless drill/driver is a refined workhorse tool that is commonly bundled with quick-change fast charging batteries with a charger and a carrying case. These batteries are either NiCad or Lithium Ion. With the ease of being able to quick battery changes, a pilot can have all the available starting power with convenience. A cordless drill/driver with a 200 in-lb rating is suitable for 50-sized helis, versus ratings of 400 in-lb of torque is needed to start a 90-size engine with ease. An adjustable clutch is used to prevent damage to a possible hydro-locked engine. The cordless drill/driver also has an rpm range of around 1200 rpm to 1500 rpm, which does not over spin a nitro engine during starting. Cordless drill/driver challenge for engine starting without G-Force ProStart Since cordless drill/drivers were never designed to start heli engines but to drill and drive screws. Once the cordless drill/drivers clutch slips and re-engages, the hammering effect and shock will be transmitted directly to the nitro engine that is being started. G-Force ProStart product design and features The G-Force ProStart (patent pending) is an anti-shock drill/driver adaptor which is designed to isolate the shock generated from the cordless drill/drivers from getting to the helis engine drive train. The G-Force ProStart uses dampers that isolate the shock from the cordless drill/driver to the nitro engine and the heli clutch system. The G-Force ProStart also incorporates additional dampers to soak the wobble vibration that can occur from long 6mm hex starter wands. The G-Force ProStart will work with most of todays starter wands. The G-Force ProStart has a standard 7mm hole for accepting the common 6mm hex starter wands. Optional 8mm and 5/16 shaft adapters are available for those who use clamp-on starter wands. G-Force also has available cone starter for RC planes as well. • GFA7066 G-Force ProStart for 7mm shafts with 6mm hex drive • GFA7067 8mm adaptor shaft • GFA7068 5/16 adaptor shaft • GFA7069 aluminum drive cone

University of Illinois Information Trust Institute MAY 29, 2009
A newly developed wireless multi-hop technology is set to dramatically improve the ability of emergency services personnel to obtain reliable, high-quality video footage from surveillance aircraft and combine it in real-time with other types of incoming data, thus providing them with a potentially crucial new grasp of relevant information during crisis situations. Boeing Research & Technology, the advanced research and development organization at Boeing, recently staged a demonstration of the new technology, which was developed by Boeing researchers in conjunction with Professor Natasha Neogi of the Information Trust Institute (ITI) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Dr. Jae H. Kim of Boeing Research & Technology led the research project as Principal Investigator and Program Manager. The research that resulted in the development of the new technology was funded by the U.S. Office of Naval Research. The new technology makes it possible to communicate via mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) that may form and break apart in unpredictable ways, while still maintaining trustworthy connectivity. That approach is unlike current surveillance technologies, which place heavy reliance on ground units controlled from a centralized point of command. The new technology instead allows decentralized control among a scattered group of communicating nodes, which could include both stationary and mobile units on the ground as well as airborne networks of uninhabited aerial vehicles. The Boeing demonstration, which took place April 23 at the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base in California, presented the new technology to an audience that included representatives of the U.S. Office of Naval Research. The demonstration used a network consisting of stationary and mobile units on the ground, including small roving carts carrying small mobile routers, and an airborne network consisting of radio-controlled model planes that were built from kits produced by Hobbico, Inc. of Champaign, Illinois and piloted by Hobbico employees. The researchers then broadcast video among the various nodes on the network, and found that the stationary and roving carts were able to receive good-quality video data from the planes at any time, even when some network links were broken. The technological innovation consisted of taking protocols that were originally designed to work in static situations with earthbound units, and altering them in an online fashion so that they would work in dynamic situations involving aerial vehicles as well as ground units. Such dynamic situations have much worse connectivity than static situations, making video transmission much more difficult. Neogi says that the new technology should have great value for some applications, particularly in the context of search and rescue missions. “Firefighters could maintain situational awareness of a fire in progress, including the positions of other firefighters and resources, by obtaining information from handheld units,” she explains. “‘Bird’s-eye-view’ video footage provided by small aircraft drones could be made available to them, along with data provided from other perspectives on the scene, such as small cameras installed on firefighters’ hats.” The technology could have even greater value in the context of a larger disaster, like an earthquake, where rescuers might otherwise have difficulty negotiating partially impassable road systems or avoiding downed power lines. “That was a big problem in Hurricane Katrina,” Neogi points out. “They weren’t able to coordinate air and ground coverage during the rescue operation.” Neogi, who is an expert in aerospace systems and control, holds appointments in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and the Coordinated Science Laboratory as well as the Information Trust Institute at Illinois. She is also co-leader of a project studying theoretical safety assurance and security assessment in the Information Trust Institute’s Boeing Trusted Software Center. About the Information Trust Institute (ITI) The Information Trust Institute is a multidisciplinary cross-campus research unit housed in the College of Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It is an international leader combining research and education with industrial outreach in trustworthy and secure information systems. ITI brings together over 90 faculty, many senior and graduate student researchers, and industry partners to conduct foundational and applied research to enable the creation of critical applications and cyber infrastructures. In doing so, ITI is creating computer systems, software, and networks that society can depend on to be trustworthy, that is, secure, dependable (reliable and available), correct, safe, private, and survivable. Instead of concentrating on narrow and focused technical solutions, ITI aims to create a new paradigm for designing trustworthy systems from the ground up and validating systems that are intended to be trustworthy. www.iti.illinois.edu About Boeing Boeing is the world’s leading aerospace company and the largest manufacturer of commercial jetliners and military aircraft combined.
