Hi All

Was out of flying aerobatics this past year ... stripped the wings and stabs for recovering and never got round to it = I got bitten by the rotary winged whirlybird = TT Raptor 30. I really enjoyed learning the heli much to the disgust of the regular pattern flyers in my circle of friends

Anyways I have recovered the wings and stabs and have serviced necessary items that get worn/old/ugly looking!!!

Here are a couple of pics of the newly covered wings, stabs, rudder. I kept the colour scheme very simple as this is what works for me up in the sky. I love the fancy covering/colour jobs on some of the planes nowadays but it is totally lost in the sky...

Due to pressure in the pattern circles we are looking to electrify our planes but this is not a serious rush for me... I still love my two-stroke 140 RX and will gladly fly it into the future... Not sure about what electric set-up I am wanting anyways = I dont like complicated so the idea of a gearbox puts me off totally and the extra power and battery required for the outrunners pushes the weight into the red zone.

enough waffle... the pictures I took in my back yard - excuse the grass, been battling with weeds this season[&o]
