I've just been looking at a Cox Flight Kit on EBay, and an idea has occured to me...
If I could get hold of scans of the battery and the fuel can label I could print up labels and stick them onto a modern can and a modern (Suitably sized) battery pack, and be really retro when flying!
Anyone got any idea where I could get such scans?
Just one of the daft ideas I get occasionally!

Re: Cox Labels
About the battery box, I have a battery but it has exploded and leaked sometime before I got my hands on it. I have tried to make a new box for a new battery but gave up after needing more printer ink. I have "reloaded" my original box with new batteries just to take a video of me using it to start an engine. I have since put the original batteries back into the box. For the replacement batteries, I broke open a 6 volt lantern battery and pulled out the 4 high amp 1.5v cells.

That is nearly what I need!, now, if you could take a photo square-on to the camera, of both sides, and the edges, if possible, and give the can dimensions, we'd be well on the way!
If I can get this idea sorted I will, of course, make the results available to anyone here

Re: Cox Labels
I'll see what I can do, I would take scans of each side if I can get my scanner to work. If I cant get it to work, I'll take good pictures of each side.
