Default RE: So many Micro Systems to choose from...

Oops! Scientific - that's what I meant. Senior moment...

Yes, I am working from the Hannan Graphics plan drawn by David Jones. It is a very nice set of drawings, and surprisingly easy to build from. There are some issues with the ribs in that you need to cut away the lines instead of cutting to the lines, but it builds nice and square...

I built one in '71 0r '72 as an indoor FF. It worked very well, although I don't think I got much more than 30 seconds with it. The new one should have better duration when it is (re) finished - it got put up and out of the way on its building board, but then got knocked off the top of the fridge and it landed under the board. I can salvage the fuselage but it now needs new wings. The new micro gear (MJ, Falcon, JMP, etc.) is absolutely made for this sort of craziness
