Title: Trainer
Post by: error404 on June 20, 2007, 11:27:15 AM
My first venture in the Radio Control scene was when I purchased this 'Trainer' back in 1995.

I brought it out to the Pheonix Park and the Safety Officer gave it its maiden flight. However on landing it flipped head over heels and damaged the tail fin.

I repaired this but never attempted another flight. It'll probably stay in the shed for another year or two and then i'll put in a new engine etc and give it a proper shot.

Here's a few more pictures.

I'll take a picture of the transmitter and put it up here aswell.

p.s.   I was told it was a 'YAMMAMOTO', if you beg to differ let me know, it would be nice to have its proper name.
