Sun and a lot of banter sounds good to me. I'm sure there will be a thermal or two to be found! Just need a floater and some perseverance. It's goin to be a long hot summer. We need to start practicing!

Well a man can dream can't he :D

Slope Soaring / Mini Toons type close-in aerobatics sloper

Well i think i have another machine that is a "must bring" when flying. This is a seriously fun little glider. As you may have guessed. It flies great. How i need to finish it. Glue the servos so they don't move on every (crash)landing and decide on how to secure the wing. Tried to get some video but didn't turn out too well.
Big fun in a little glider   :D  :D  :D  :D

Finally got the minitoons ready to fly. not finished, but flyable. had no glass tape which i got but only one small roll. enough to do the wings but not the fuse. hope to try it tomorrow if the cliff down the road is working.

Well I enjoyed flying the quark so much that i went straight home and got stuck into finishing the minitoons!
Nearly there now. have to buy some tape tomorrow and she is ready.
A few little adjustments and you have a really fun machine that flies very well Fred and you can try whatever stunt you want case there's not a lot to break.
Good stuff!

For Sale / Race M 3 metre F3F glider.
« on: February 21, 2011, 17:40:56 PM »
Race M 3metre F3F glider. Comes with wing, tail and fuse bags.

It was originally put together by one of UK's top F3F pilots before I owned it, hence the quality of the installation is excellent. The wing auto-mates to the fuselage loom by way of DB9 connectors and the model comes supplied with Multiplex Polo Digi4’s in the fuselage and Hitec 5125mg servos in the wing. The battery pack is a Sanyo Eneloop and is one year old. The model comes supplied with ballast set along with all the necessary spacers.

The model has had a repair to one of the wingtips and a crack to the fuselage boom, but these were professionally remoulded by Tony Fu and hence the repairs are invisible. Detailed pictures of these spots are available upon request.

The model is very clean, and is in top condition. The RaceM is a classic F3F ship which is still highly competitive – in fact the UK Midlands Winter F3F League was won by a RaceM identical to this one this year. It was my first F3F ship and I would recommend it to anyone for either that, or just as a fantastic 3m sport model, as they are vice-free, strong, and are highly effective in both thermic air as well as 50mph plus with full ballast.

Model is supplied complete, just add rx.

This is a really nice glider. Have only flown it a handful of times. Thats one of the reasons i'm selling it. That and I have my eye on another toy!
