Scale / Old gliders Bocian
« on: July 15, 2020, 19:57:47 PM »
I placed a bid on an auction of Old Gliders of Poland
I ended up buying a 3.5m Bocian short kit for reasonable money.
All parts are CNC cut from 1/8 plywood and plans are very basic
Just wondering if anybody on here has ever built an Old Gliders model
Struggling to find a build thread anywhere 😲

Unfortunately I crashed my model due to the 90° bend I put on the push rod it broke at the servo and didn't use it for the photo
I was allowed to fly the fresh in the last 2 rounds and I had no advantage in any way as both flights were trimming flights and getting the tow hook position correct
But must say the fresh was easier flew 😁😁

Thermal / Flat field / Fresh Res glider
« on: October 19, 2019, 13:37:19 PM »
After having great success with the PURes V2 glider I managed to come across this kit on eBay and bought it real cheap
It's built similar to the PURes so it didn't take long to put together
I'm hoping it fly's just as good 😁😁😁😁😁

Won the Bunny Boyce 100s tankard today with my 2m PURes glider
Conditions were really challenging
Must say the wee model went up the winch line really well 😁

Thermal / Flat field / NI E-SOARING competition
« on: August 25, 2019, 17:49:48 PM »
Today was the Northern Ireland E-SOARING competition at the Belfast playing fields at mallusk
After 5 rounds I managed to win 3 of the 5 rounds and that got me into the 2 man fly off
Once again I met Keith Wilson flying an Explorer and this time I managed to get the better of him after the 2 rounds

 Hello Gerry
That's something I'll have to have a look at, after taking the top off and seeing the way the brass box was fitted I'll not be taking any chances
I've been unable to get down this past few years as getting time off in work is difficult and we have to book holidays 2 years in advance, But I'm hoping to make it down this September fingers crossed
