Small world or what.................................... My baby............................................................

Off topic, but you're not by any chance the original Rocket Ron. A real riding superstar ..........................   

Thanks to all. I programmed in a soft brake and tried it last night. The prop now stops when I throttle off so .....sorted. This plane does not like to slow down for landing

Well thanks for nothing Eric. I asked a perfectly reasonable question as electric flight is totally new to me. Help I need, sarcasm I can live without. Perhaps I'll ask elsewhere. Timbo, thanks. It is a powered glider I'm referring too so I guess from your answer I need to set up a soft brake programme.

Strangely, the Auchan hypermarket in Poitiers has huge signs up showing that it's open tomorrow. Thats a first. The model shop alas, non!

Could someone please explain the difference between the two and which mode is correct for my EG Pro. Thanks Gary

UK Engineers led the world until the era of the 'Lets dump the fifty year olds' and other american management garbage infiltrated UK business practice. Thats not to say that it was perfect before, of course, but it was certainly better......... IMHO, of course. Gary.

Not only handsome, but really generous too. ps, it can be sent to my sisters address in the UK for me to collect............

I give up.......................................sorry it all turned into gobbledegook.

Phew,.....................................made it at last.

Shhhhhh..........................you'll have everyone down here

Hi Lee from yet another brit who has moved to the quiet side............. We live in Vienne, south of Poitiers and I am a member of South Vienne Aero Modellers. Tarmac runway, clubhouse etc........and funded by the local Marie. I'm fairly new to flying (two crashes to date) and currently have a Flair Cub (difficult to fly as it has a tendancy to bite) - an Astro Hog (superb flier) - a Flair Kite (very, shall we say robust) and an Easy Glider Pro (a really good plane for a lump of foam). We are spoiled for choice here with four clubs within a 25 kilometre radius.

Easy Glider Pro Chris....................................just brilliant.
