MIG 29
JohnPearson:
Thanks guys
I will try your idea Fred, with the extra wing loading to see if an increase in speed will improve the overall control. Also a friend of mine suggested that I install a few LED's in the tail pipes to simulate the after burners, also, install a sound generator and speaker in the model with jet sounds which can be turned on and off on low passes along the slope, mmmm now I like the sound of that!!

Happy Days:
Sound card, speakers, batteries,...Hmmmmm that'll increase the weight a bit. :?:
Like to know the price of the sound card John, the last time I looked it worked out to a couple of hundred, with all the gear :!:
Great picies, (nearly as good as mine :roll: ) must have a big, fast lense on that camera.
Are you gonna bring this bird to the Sept. Fly-In so we can all have a close up viewing? :D

JohnPearson:
Hi Mr K
Good to here from you, if the model is in one peice after the next test flights, I hope to have it on the slope in Sept. I also have an F86 from the same range of suppliers, it's the one that Fred was talking about trying out. I may give this a go as well if I get time.
The sound cards are expensive if you buy from the dealers, however, one of my fellow jet jockeys Peter, is a whizz at designing little gizmos for models, so I will put the idea pass him and see what he comes up with. Looking forward to the flyin in Sept.

IceWind:
Hi JohnPearson,
That is one great looking plane, looks awesome.
You have to make a video of it flying.
Does it have LG or you removed it for the slope?
I guess been foam and landing always on the belly may start to wear it.
JohnPearson:
Hi Icewind
Thanks for the kind comments, The Mig does have landing gear, however I removed them for the slope. The bottom would as you say, start to wear away, therefore I glassed the bottom of the intakes to help prevent this. If I can get the jet to fly better of the slope, I will post a video of the Mig in action.
Here's a pic of the Mig ready for flat field flying (EDF version)
