[ModelGuard.Com]

the 'peacock' brand are similar to zippo but seem easier to get going. work well

[loz]

I also have a zippo and have found it to be difficult to light, i also have a cheap unbranded one that I bought on eBay for about £8 which works perfectly and lights first time every time

I use a fast flite tx bag
They take the chill off,weird to get used to at first but its beter than numb thumbs haha

I have some of the cystallization type hand warmers, non of that messing around with fancy zippo crap. Just bend the metal disc inside, the fluid crystallizes, instant warmth.

Re: Hand Warmers

They work fine but only last a few hours. Depends how long your flying for

Zippo for me too, the last time i lit mine it lasted a two whole days! must have overdone it with the lighter fuel!!
You are better off with two so you can put one in each pocket.

Aldi usually do them, thats where ive got mine in the past. Failing that im sure you can order some off Amazon.

Im not normally out for more than a few hours as its not just my hands that start to get cold! Its not like you cant carry more than one pair, for a couple of quid there is no reason not too.

I had toasty warm hands and fingers using a combination of these fingerless gloves with mits, and two disposible hand warmers. At 33p per pair of handwarmers (which last 6 hours), I havent seen the need to go for a more expensive handwarmer yet.

This worked really well on Sunday, when it was 1 degree outside. When not flying, fold over the mit (with a hand warmer inside), fold back to fly, to have naked fingers on the sticks. I had to take my fingers out occasionally as they were too warm...

x 2 Zippo hand warmers can be a bit of a faff to start sometimes but once going last all day long.

Zippo ones are god but do take a litte bit to get going but once there warm they go for ages ;-)

I use similar finger & thumbless gloves that I've hacked about quite a lot.

The most extreme ones, I've completely hacked the thumbs and palms off; so you only have cover on the backs of your hands, wrists, fingers, etc. Lots of 'feel', warmer than bare hands.

Another suggestion is to make sure the rest of you is warm, as this will help keep hands warm.

Turnigy transmitter glove with heating elements set on 35 degrees. Hands were a little too toasty towards end of flights. Feet got too cold this time out!!
