Magazines, articles of interest.
​
Australian Model News is a free publication edited and published in Melbourne (Australia) by John Lamont. Since its inception in 2010 AMN has evolved from being a small Victorian oriented publication, centred on R/C scale aircraft modelling, to a national publication with some international content and covering all facets of aeromodelling. Access the issues via the Bendigo Radio Controlled Aircraft site.

Forums, Reviews and Tips.
​
This (US based) site is great for tips and info on all of your favourite kits, plans and designers. A 'pay for membership' site but probably the most useful site on the net for scale builders and flyers. Price is $20 US per year, $150 US for lifetime membership.
A very handy site (US based) with forums, store, reviews and much more. This link takes you to the 'RC Airplanes' pages but there's much more to explore here.

Another very handy (US based) site, once again the link takes you to the 'RC Airplanes' pages.
Probably the simplest, safest, most vesatile balancing method available, cheap too! Courtesy of the Creswell RC Flyers, Texas.
