Happy Days:
Well, Mr. JP, for £29 and a couple of servos that looks a pretty good deal I‘d say. :clap:

I take it you’re not going to put a fan unit in her…………….They are rather noisy with a motor in them aren’t they. (Gliding is far more civilized.)

I assume you’ve left the air intakes ‘open’. I’d have thought to block them off would cause too much drag,….right?

We’re snowed in here….. The only things moving are 4x4’s Could be some time before Big L is usable again. :cry:  :cry:

pretty much snowed in here too Keith. I got to the bottom of the hill we use today, but there was no way I was geting the car up the hill and had to turn around.

I vaguely remember something years ago, that said at our scales, it was better to balnk off the intakes, something to do with the "wetted" area of the ducts? Bigger friction surface for the air to act on

Richard Boyd:
Hi John , your new toy looks cool, cannot wait to see her fly !!!!!
I really am worried about you and Andrew, I hope the men in white coats do not hear about your antics ! Even worse the wife !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shock:

Slieve Gallion has 18'' (480mm) of snow on the slopes, temperatures were minus 16DC yesterday and with further freezing temperatures forcast I recon there will be very little flying this side of Christmas.
Who said, winter is the season for sloping ?

Looks Great John  :D  :D . Love to see it fly some day.
Looks like we will have plenty more building weather to come. Only problem is its to dame cold in the workshop to do any decent amount of work. The instructions on my wood glue say it won't set in temperatures below 4 Deg.

Happy Days:
So what’s the matter with the kitchen table Alan. Surely it’s not below 4 Deg’s in your kitchen,....... is it??? :lol:
