Decided I wanted/needed a small light weight model to take if I'm doing any hillwalking or for light slope days. Did a bit of websurfing and found this on the T9Hobbysport website:

Arrived a couple of days ago, and this is what you get for £34 deliverred

Written in ***** French, but I'm sure I can follow the pictures!

Achtung! :shock: Ein Spitfire!………..well, it’s got elliptical wing tips like a spitfire.

So you intend going hill walking Bill, you must be feeling better :clap: . Good to hear it.

Time for a quick interrogation: :twisted:

What is the w.s. of the Minus? It looks like a two piece wing and a V tail. Is it a true V tail with rudder configuration? or are the tailerons really just elevators. :?:

900mm
Aileron, Rudder & elevator
Two piece wing

There is a travel box available for it, but T9 didn't have any

And I've just realised plan is in French and (English) of course being a Scot I'd be better reading the French!

Been doing a bit of low level stuff on the hills Keith, managed to the top of Cave hill once and Divis as well. Taking it slow. Lot of weight to shift and fitness to recover :cry:

Traitor!

Little by little old fruit. By the way, how are your balls these days? :shock: Er, sorry, that should read galls-tones :lol:

Us Celts stick together!

Still waiting on a date for surgery to have stones removed. Told it could be another 7-8 months! Lose a day here & there to discomfort but otherwise OK.

Box is out of stock on the Topmodel website too, but a bit of Correx, and you save yourself 20 euros

Box widely used to house the Crobe and Crobe2, grand fathers of the Minus / Minus Acro (http://lecrobe.free.fr/main.htm - Sorry you Celt people, in French!

)

Have fun with the build

Fuse framed up, tails built ( still to be sanded) and nose block glued together
