Abstract: The present invention concerns a control arm that may be used to control the movement of a component of a radio controlled vehicle having a center line. The control arm includes a threaded rod as well as first and second base members. The base members are positionable on opposing sides of the component. Each of the base members has a planar surface and an opposingly located raised section that has an outer surface that is partially spherical in shape. An opening is located in each of the base members which extends through the base members. Also provided are opposingly located locking members, each of the locking members has a cavity shaped to engage the spherical section of the clamping member and an internally threaded bore which coacts with the threaded rod. The coaction between the threaded portions creates a biasing force which urges the base members against the components.

Abstract: A connector for use with a remote controlled apparatus comprising a base adapted to receive a control member and a contact surface adapted to slidingly receive a latch. Two fingers extend outwardly from the base and the latch has opposingly located deformable prongs which engage a pin and two arms which engage a contact surface found on the base. The latch is slidingly operable on the contact surface of the base between a locked and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the fingers of the base and the pin form a closed, unopenable structure. In the unlocked position, the fingers and the pin form an openable structure.

Abstract: A tackle holder for releasably holding tackle items such as hooks, pliers, files, and other related tools. The holder has an elongated housing which holds a hook holder. The holder is made of a pierceable material which releasably secures hoods and lures. Also included is a tool holder made from two opposingly located plates. The plates have corresponding apertures for holding the tools in an upright position.

Abstract: A device that promotes the safer handling and attachment of an object to an overhead support by providing a positioning pole and hanger that uses a rotatable U-shaped catch that works in conjunction with a stop located on the hanger to maintain the object in a vertical position during the attachment operation irrespective of the pole's position with respect to the object.
