Quark 2M - Back to cutting innocent trees!
Richard Boyd:
Hello all, just home from the mountain and its 16.10pm
I will let JP give you his report lol.
Fred:
Ooppss! That doesn't look good! :lol:
Time to blame the slope, the weather, the CofG :lol: :lol:
Come on JP this is torture! :)
JohnPearson:
Hi guys
Just got into the house, 'well no flying today' the wind was perfect, however Richard and I sat on the mountain for over an hour, but the cloud was just to low, a complete 'White Out!'. I did hold the model into wind near the edge of the slope, and she lifted out of my hand and hovered in the wind for a short time, but just could not see far enough to have a quick flight. Still I am off over the next three days, so if the weather improves, the Quark will fly!
Fred:
Thanks JP :D
So, I was right to blame the weather then! :P
Hopefully, the weather will improve now. Same here anyway, haven't see the light all day! :!:
Richard Boyd:
A sad day with what I THOUGHT WAS PERFECT WINDS ON THE LOVELY EAST SLOPE, PITY ABOUT THE LOW CLOUD, VIS WAS DOWN TO ABOUT 20m ! But winds were strong at 20plus MPH thats 32 kmph for our metric friends.
I really like the over all shape of the Quark, very pretty :wink:
The build quality is superb,
A big well done to Fred :clap:
I need to get mine on the building board.
