RE: Brett Green on modelling the Messerschmitt Bf.110

Great pic's Jim!

I figured the stacks would solve your engine woes... Maybe your 33's need more prop? Just a thought..

Beautiful plane Jim,

RE: 33cc homelite

Hey ramms1,

I balanced my Hawk, as per the plans, 1-5/8" in front of the lower wing's leading edge. The plane always flew in a slight tail down attitude, but was very easy to fly and always...

RE: My first aerial pic's

Here's three more. See if you can spot the hawk (or eagle?). Sometimes it's difficult to find a little clear airspace to fly in. What with all the birds (geese, ducks, hawks, and a myriad of other...

RE: My first aerial pic's

RE: My first aerial pic's

Thanks Tetley, for the offer.:D

The 33cc Homelite with the current muffler really does'nt dirty up the plane much. I can fly it for hours and have just a little bit of "goop" to clean off.

RE: Post your most impressive in flight photo...

To be honest DTB, I'm not sure how high the plane was. I could go higher, but I'm not sure what my max radio range is. One day I'll get an altimeter gizmo and try again.

Anyone care to guess on...
