sorry to hear about your job phil, but i would have to agree with the above!!!. me, on the other hand=pure beefcake,(im not fat, im just big boned!)

is that sophie i see in the background of the fuz shot?


i found some 28 gram mini servos with 5.4 kilos of power.
hillcott electronics do them, not sure on quality though,
the good news is the price--------just 10 squids each

"Same rules apply C strutt".

Should be a real good weekend. I have always liked flying at "Hells mouth" The field lends it self to really low knife edge tricks must be the horizon to horizon vista and the crown of the field and the beer!!!

Is Choppy attending?

Now Calm down you lot....

Right Hercmate... as far as your outstanding bits are concerned can I safely assume that you will be contacting Island Hobbies for your engine, Pipe, Spats and UC?


Philly... you waiting from Carbon Copy or me.... I dont have you on the list and I do have the spats in stock dependant which type you want.
I will check on the price of those Super Tecs my figure was just a guess, but they do have a better spec on paper than the 591s.

Graham and everyone... yes the hinges are now in... standard size for the 50 and bigguns for the 140 (Baron I will send you some of the bigguns).
Plan to do introductory offer of £1.50 a pack of standard (20) and £2.00 for the bigguns (24) for anyone who sends me a self addressed and stamped envelope with the required cheque. Price will go up by about 10-20% after that period.
Confident... absolutely... its all I use now and Ive been using them for about 7 years.... bullet proof.

Graham, why do you ask... I sent you some already and you used them on the Capiche... you want more ?

Just come in from the workshop with a beer....
ahhhh

Is Choppy attending?
--------------------------
im afraid so!!!!

should be a laugh this year, no beer tent though- its a bring your own night

Good.

Aint seen the old boy for a year or more. I expect he still outflies most on zero practice

Bugger all chance of the lowest knife edge pass award then.

With Choppie about ay??

he was the first guy to really WOW me at the field, at our show a few years back when i was a newbie.
he was flying a kyosho seduction, rolling circuits about 3 foot off the deck, low k/e, etc etc

i am going to be flying one of your easy streets in the leccy slot,
standard setup- graupner speed 600 race and eight 2400 nicads, goes very well- nice design

I think there the muts nuts. How big are the big un's ?

I am going to bring my Easy street has same setup as yours!!

what about bringing a mini jazz, i love those little things,
ive had two now, one had an argument with a tree- and lost.
the second i built myself from the plan last year, and i lost that to a dodgy switch on the second flight
i am going to build another though- they are very cheap to build, a bit of 1/16th and 3/16th.

Graham

Standard are ave 15mm wide... Large are a little over 20mm..

Intro Price is £1.50 for pack of 18 standards and £2 for pack of 24 large.

This price applies when other stuff is being ordered at the same time or if ordered individually that customer sends self addressed and stamped envelope along with a cheque for the required amount dependant on how many packs are ordered.

Prices will go up after intro period.

cheers

Im sorry and surprised about that you are not getting replies from Carbon Copy.

I represent Island Hobbies, and spoke only this week to them about following up on international orders.

please email me at the following address, and I shall pursue the enquiry for you.... Im sorry that you have experienced problems..

[email protected]

err....hadn't thought that far ahead I must admit, tho like philly I forgot that hinges would be required!! I want the gucci carbon uc and spats, though a bog standard canopy and cowl will be ok. Do Island Hobbies sell the West 50t1 and pipe? Are they cheaper than Weston do it? Anyways I don't mind where the bits come from, just don't want to put any noses outta joint

I WILL be starting my c50 on Monday when I get back from seeing my new nephew at the weekend. Its my plan to have it done and flying by the Essex fly-in (whenever that may be in Sep). I will speak to the mistress of the house about next weekend tonight too...........

I'd also like to try the B cert inverted test to win a go on a c50 tho I don't think the car is big enough to bring that many planes down

INVERTED B CERTIFICATE


Tell us Malcolm, how do you do a inverted landing and takeoff!

like the old immovable object meets the irresistable force thing

it tis, the photo looks it, but she really wasnt shaking her head at me

who won the fly for fun? you fly good, you fly lots, i just fly better for now.. unless i get out more, YAY! unemployment and a Capiche to play with


Sooooooooo many people tell us that, great laid back atmosphere is normaly the reason given


Carbon Copy, they didn't have any at Woody, so took my name and address to send on. already paid for. talking of which, i forgot what size wheels i need

sounds good on the Hinges, are 18 enough for a Capiche? quick head counts says 20, 4 per surface. if you've not gone back in the beer tent lets talk servos.

Martin might not be flying this year ( tell you later ) but it looks liek we found your new brown noser Malc


think he means a balsa pack too

Awwww shush mines on the way down now, good price, dunno wanna know i could have done better lol

Herc

Chepaer yes cos there is not VAT applied..

Just a case of getting it to you so that stays the case!

Its all available from Island Hobbies!

Im off now for a rare night out with the missus...

later dudes.........

ps hinges... depends how many you want to use.

Some use 17, 19, or 20

standard pack contains 18.

thats a jiffy bag per servo then right?
check the plan.... 18 before i even get to the rudder, better have me a bag of fat boys then
enjoy the night, we'll talk adresses and credit numbers tomorrow.

I have managed an inverted landing. Not proud, but was funny.

Umm C strutt

You could hand launch inverted and gently land into wind!! very sad boy!!!


But then you is cutting a c50 from scratch!! "I rest my case".

OK I will bring my Mini Jazz also!! Flies the b*****Ks for a tiddler

Does the most extreme snaps

Knife edge possible but needs loadsa stick waggling

did anyone see my inverted SOFT landing 3 or 4 years ago at our display when the tail got ripped off my Panther?

hey carters... i bet my Capiche is further along than yours

your car is getting fuller and fuller malcolm!

yep, lots of coupling with the rudder on the m j.

get yer arse in gear phil, you should have that built by now!

those panthers seem to be addicted to inverted landings, ive done fin scraping high alpha passes with mine but once the fin is touching, theres no more down elevator left!
ive bent two needle valves doing that

i do believe gwyn mentioned putting wheels on top of his mini-bipe for the display!

heres gwyn doing a low pass, the first person to guess the distance from the ground to the fin wins a dodgy vietnamese artf

no, got wings to build and it starts about 10 i guess.
