Fchris, I can't believe it. I took my Nasty out this morning to try out a new motor after a refurbishment during the week. It was too windy and only the little park at the local school was free. Damage was inevitable but thought I'd try a bit of the Jaav never-say-die spirit. My colour scheme even looks the same as yours. Uncanny. Just wish my flying was as good

great minds think alike mine probably a bit better in the wind due to being a bit weighty. (kf add a bit but compensate with lift) also running cf pushrods to strengthen fuzz so there`s a bit more weight. However the 5ltrs of hot melt glue i have put on it from doing knife edge etc 5 ft off the ground probably help the most gotta love foamies

Sounds like my SPAD building....Cut all the wing panels up, wrong flute direction...
the EF Pylon Racer? Thought so!..

How about a DF stik with super beefed up EF wings...

Have a new fuse looking for a new project....
MMM I still have a few rockets that need lighting....How much heat can the foam wings take???

Spose I could strap it under the Tornado! Might have to do some test on her at low speed .... No I think the big bird with the 61 has a clean belly would be more suitable...Strap a EF under her and then light the wick....[>:]

I think Ill make the UC on the twin big bird very long to can carry birds under it. strap 2 rockets on the EF and use it as a powered glider. I still have a B52 foamie looking to be destroyed..waste of time that was.

I think pilot will be no problem.. flying space will be. The beach will be unsafe who knows what the rocket will do...might have to do a long drive out of town and use the marine plain only have to watch out for fires...But then with the rain That will prob be under water soon.
