Kits and other things I could bring to IowaDIY 2026

I have some kits I purchased when Meniscus closed shop that I’m not sure I’ll be making. I could salvage the individual drivers for something else of course, but I had the crossovers upgraded and made for me at the time. It’d be a shame to break these up. I suppose the adventurous could pull the crossover components off the boards if they wanted to.

Anyway, given their kit form I’m not sure anyone here would be interested. Some were rather pricey given the components, but I’m not looking to get back what I spent on them. These are in storage so I assembled this from memory (and old emails). If anyone is interested DM me and we can chat about it and get pictures and stuff.

I could probably be talked into shipping at cost if you aren’t going to be at Iowa this year.

I would love to take those RS180s off your hands. One of mine got dinged by a toy RC copter when the kids were little. Ironic that it was our oldest who did it and now he’s a pilot in the Air Force.

Sure thing Tom, sounds like that was a learning experience for him! What airframe(s) does he fly?

You’ll be at Iowa then, right?

If my memory serves these are brand new, unopened, originally purchased by me. I’ll dig them out of storage when I can and run some sweeps to verify functionality, then set them aside (provided they are good to go!)

Great - thanks! Yes, I’ll be at Iowa.

He’s primarily flying the C-17 right now, but I know he has training on a few others as well.

C-17 is a great one to have hours on before exiting the Air Force. I knew some A-10 pilots when I was in and they lamented needing to get hours on larger frames before they would get job offers from airlines and such.
