While I don't like foamies I do concede it's probably the best way to go. By having risk-free flying, you'll get more competitors. And racing is only as good as your opponents.. More competitors is deffinitely the main thing.

OK, so hands up!
Who fancies a bit of flying? Do we all have something we can fly?
Lets try arrange something! (I'm a little tied to the house at the moment as my other half is due any day now, but i thought i'd get the ball rolling!)
What slopes that people know of would suit racing/combat?

Your the expert on Mt Leinster Joe. Isn't the Westerly slope fairy long and straight?

Hi guys

I've got a Rampage kit which has been sitting in the box for a few months.
A race event would be just the incentive to get it built!
My Dad's got a Hoodlum (which flies pretty nicely) so I'm sure he'd be up for it too.

Beans on toast are not too bad, My Dragon was 425 euro landed, and it is not a bad mover either.

Fly Crunchies not foamies


Spots or no Spots?
Tuff Choice.

That's a good one Ralph !  :lol:
Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!

That's an amazing price, Ralph!  Where/how did you get it?
