    I belong to the Dumaguete Aeromodellers Club. From Hypermart, head towards Valencia. After about 5 km, look for Eskina convenience store on the left, and a bake shop on the right. Turn right on that street, and after about 1/2 to 1 km, look for a large water tank on left, and a very big and tall concrete smokestack on the right. About 20 or so meters from the smokestack is the entrance to the flying site. You will see a sign at the entrance. The club will not be there this Sunday because we will have a flying session at the Siquijor airport.

    Thanks for the info. Where do the club memebers get their equipment from, any shops in Cebu or on Negros.
    Would be interested in something like a 2 or 2 1/2 metre rc electric glider (ARF) and JR radio to get back into it.
    regards, Dave.

    One of the club members has a home based mini hobby shop, but he does not have a lot of stuff. His name is RonRon Merecido and his cell phone is +639287764904. Joel in Cebu also has a home based hobby shop, and has more stuff. His cell phone is 09173280800. There are also a couple of well equiiped hobby shops in Manila, one of them is Lils Hobby, but I dont have the phone number handy. I usually get my hobby supplies online from either Tower Hobbies, or Omni Hobbies. I have my orders shipped to my PO Box in Dumaguete, and for the past 3 years, I've received everything that I've ordered.

    What time does the club usually start and end on Sunday? (Church) Also, do they have monthly meetings anywhere? Do you use fuel or electric motors for the planes? How many members usually fly on Sunday? (If I make the trip, will I find someone there on Sunday?)

    Thanks,
    Gecko
