Hey all,

Happy new year, Hope you are all well and still slightly mad in the head.... lol.

Anyway I sort of lost touch with RC in 2011, Work related shite mostly... but hopefully 2012 will be better.

I currently have nothing to fly on the slope so i rumaged around in Gerry B's vaste and wonderfull workshop and came out a couple of weeks later bewildered but just about alive with this !!!!  :D

LAST DOWN XXXL

available from Staufenbiel. at www.modellhobby.de

Not for the purest admitedly but as it will be the only glider i have this year it will serve my needs well me thinks. So far i have only the servo tray built and installed... but it should not be too long getting this together.

Cheers all
D.

Howdi Chris,

yeah, i test flew one of these a couple of years ago for someone and i though it was excellent. The crow braking is deadly effective.

MAnaged to get all the main assembly done today and put it togther for the first time. Also got the motor prop spinner and ESC installed. So it looked finished on the outside. Now  i need to install 6 servos and pushrods and horns. And make up about 50feet of servo leads.. hehe  :wink:

Looking forward to seeing tounntine again with the first of my new fleet.

Cheers
D.

Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
One a penny, two a penny,
Hot cross buns!

Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
If you haven't any daughters,
Give them to your sons!
One a penny, two a penny,
Hot cross buns!

Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
If you haven't got a penny
A ha'penny will do.
If you haven't got a ha'penny,
Well God bless you.
