Dambusters Theme! (really Richard :roll: )  

Avro Lancaster , Unique silhouette, (pitty it didn’t have retracts) Couldn’t see any exhaust pipes and with the sound muted couldn’t hear the motors, was it electric powered?

Bet that took some time to build, lovely model, and nicely flown. Well done, whoever it was. :clap:

Hi Keith the Lancaster was built by Robert McMaster from Andrews club in Ballymoney, he was running 4x 25 OS engines. He then sold the Bomber to Bill from my club and he converted it to electric power. Electric really is the answer for multi engine planes.
Retracts would really enhance the Bomber, Billy may fit them at a later date.
Bill is only new to the hobby and has , wait for it ! over 100 electric powered planes that are all flying !
He is working on a few new planes at the moment,
This hobby can take over your life if you let it lol.
I was out watching Grainne Duffy last nite and abit under the weather.
She is one amazing talent, give me those blues, what a nite !!!!!!!!!

New to the hobby and has over 100 models,…….obviously a very greedy man! 8)  :lol:

With electric power already in the Lanc’ a sound card, couple of good speakers and retracts would enable it to steel the show at any scale gathering wouldn’t it?

No good me dreaming of scale models, I’d be trying to make them perform impossible manoeuvres and end up crashing!

Grainne Duffy? I don’t know anything about her,……….what’s the story? Is she glider or powered? :?:

Nice video Richard. Makes we want to rejoin my local power club and get flying power again. (And before Fred says it, Yes I know power is for girls :P   :P )
