haydenc:
Thanks Fred and Peter.
I work shift and the next few weekends are occupied but I would love to take you up on the offer Fred. Wont be till late April though.
I hope by then to have my own Spirit by then.
It would be a great help to get pointers on flying it. So I will be in touch on your offer to
On further research I see it has optional spoilers. They would be a help when it comes to landing. Peter have you tried them ? Does the glider float when it gets into ground effect.
Loads to learn. but first I better get a glider.
2 M Spirit it will be.
Spent a lot of last night reading other topics on the forum.
Look forward to eventually flying.
Many thanks
Charlie

Well that did'nt last long.
There I was all geared up.
Ready to go
Even downloaded a copy of the Instruction Manual and read it
2ce.
Ordered new slimline RX and Servos.
Then I said I wanted to order a 2M Spirit.
"What do you mean, out of production"
They had sold their last one only yesterday.
Just spent the morning on the net searching model shops all over the UK
NO 2M Spirit to be found anywhere
So the great search starts again.
Ah maybe I will wait till tomorrow.
A bit disheartened.
Thanks all for the encouragement so far.
