Default Roaring 20 pics

I'm hoping the howling wind outside will vanish over the weekend so I can fly my second Roaring 20. I like to get a snap or two , when they've just "rolled off the line".

That's a slick looking little plane you've got there -- and one of my favorite paint schemes. The winds here in KY have been awful this spring -- too bad they've blown all the way to OZ. Let us know how it flies.

Great looking model! Here a pictue of our prototype Roaring 20. I have a Tee Dee .020 and it flies quite well. My Dad has a .010 in his and gets some really great flights also. If any of you guys can make the VRCS Fly-in in NC next weekend let me know and we will try to pass you the transmitter!!! Great to see you guys down under flying the small stuff also. Got any single channel fliers down there?

Hi Dave,thanks for making those plans available for us all to build and enjoy.I had a prob printing the Roaring 20 plans,afew sheets were to a slightly different scale.Don't know if the fault was at my end or yours.I just rescaled on the size bar of Adobe and reprinted those couple of pages.I plan on builing The Drake in a few weeks. .........Bob HH,I don't know of any single channel fliers at present,the radio gear now is so good,light and inexpensive most guys I know just fly 2 or more channels.I served my apprenticeship on an OS Pixie outfit back in the 60's,I thought that was great {and it was then},but, when I got my first EK proportional gear,I thought nothing could beat that...times have sure changed.

Make sure tht the "Scale to fit page" option is UNchecked,
otherwise the smaller pages will be scaled up to fit, and that is a
bad thing. You want all to print at 100% size.
Enjoy!
Dave
