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

ultra spad was a stuff up......i cut all the panels to specs......just wrong panels to to the right specs. [:@] ah well start again and get it right this time

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.
