Hi Alan,
I bought the P1S in one of the sales from Bambulab and have to say it is spot on. Print quality is great and the speed is excellent. The benchy takes 14 minutes versus 45 mins on the ender 3.
Loads of good bits but have to go back to the mfg if you want parts etc, no third party options like a lot of the open source designs.

Hi Fred,
will start with twisting wings to begin with, 8 hours printing per wing half. Should have it printed in a day or two.

Hi everyone,
just to say we had a great weekend, the weather on Sat was low cloud sitting on the hill so only Richard from Cork was able to fly his Ahi within 20 yards of where he stood. Later in the day Peter attempted to fly with a bit of a mishap later in the day. We all headed down for soup and sambos in Bunclody only to get a message that the cloud had lifted. We all raced back up for the evening to fly. 7 of us had dinner that night with a few drinks and turned in for the night.
Sunday brought a drop in temperatures but amazing skies and a stiff cold Northerly wind. A great days flying had by all. Richard from Roundwood appeared with a Vulcan bomber converted from EDT to PSS and impressed all.
Well that was the last official event for the year. Looking forward to another good year in 2026.
Ralph
I am sure that the lads will post up some pics later

Hi Ger,
apologies for the late reply. I was waiting for the last minute before I did. The forecast looks like it may be cloudy and wet so I will give it a miss this year. I hope I am wrong though.
Best of luck
Ralph
