i'll be there, 2 days hopefully.

keith, we'll have to get you sorted on that verticle 8 once and for all.

i'll have a 'last down' electric glider with me for sale. includes electric motor, esc, folding prop. 3.6 m span, reichard model, still in box.

Looking for a Slope Model
« Reply #19 on: September 17, 2011, 10:04:55 AM »
Looking for a new (to me) slope model and wondered if anyone has anything lying around they no longer use?

Basic Rudder, aileron, elevator model for general slope flying in normal wind conditions. Budget: ~ 100 euro.

If anybody has anything let me know. Won't have cash to payday (27th) so can't pick up next weekend, would need to be postable!

Happy Days

Hey Bill,

I’ve got a 2mtr “Whisper”.

Mouldy, full house wing (RG15), V tail. Had a few crashes. :oops:  Battle scars to the nose area just forward of the wing. Has ballast tubes  for some fast flying in those stronger breezes. :D  (You’ve seen me flying it before)

Needs a repair to the nose area and a couple of new servos in the wing I think. HS82’s with nylon gears that have stripped. I might even have a couple of sets of new gears somewhere :?:  (I haven’t flown it for quite some time.)

If you’re interested I’ll bring it to Big L next weekend. Don’t worry about the money, it won’t be much,….(to an old friend.) :)

K.
Try not to run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas....... all at the same time.

Hello All

Good choice for Ralph, the weather is very ugly, some flys during the morning, but wind is so strong and landing very difficult.

Both afternoon are occup by cloud and rain.

See you in one year for the 3rd week end on september .

Some pictures as comming soon

The count down has started for our road trip to the BIG L yippee !
I was getting my brothers van to transport JP'S and Andrew planes down but then JP came up with a brain wave to take his camper and for the 4 amigos to travel together.
Just shows you that his brain cells arn't all dead now that he is 50    :shock:
Mrs Wallace has been a busy lady using her hair products on Andrew, seems like he is in competition with Fred for the best hair do !!!!!!!
These pair of young men get up to some tricks !!!!!!!
 :lol:
Its a pity Terry is unable to make it this time but I am sure next year will be his first experiance of fun on the slopes of the Big L

See you all soooooooooon
