Aged 17, always aimed for RAF, Jet Pilot, shot down on grounds of eyesight and MOD cuts - No Pun intended - Was absolutely no way they were going to get me in So rethink prompted Army and now aiming for HouseHold Cavalry, and if all goes to plan, I should be starting Phase one October 16th Penultimate interview next Wednesday! Haven't been bitten by the "Building Bug" yet, and a very keen 'leccy flyer However, whilst working on the fieldwork side of a Horse Riding stables, and using strimmers, tractors, mowers, am slowly coming round to the Petrol side as i am leaning how they work! But Can't see much point in getting any more models this year if i've only got a few months left Paddy @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

Hi, Recently purchased an Art Tech Diamond 2500, -Absolutely Great- however, when I went to set it up, -and after some serious trial and error, a fault was traced to the supplied Y-Lead. So Get a new one? I thought so but it seems that the connectors coming from the servos are the male side, and any Y-Lead on the market has a male connection as well, so useless! This is the lead off the servo This is the lead off the supplied Y-Lead Probably every Y-Lead in the world Am a being a complete numpty or have I got funny servo connectors? Many Thanks in Advance Paddy @import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

I went from full size gliders to models (still keep up full size though) and I think thst it does give you an invaluable idea of how it works. I did some solo aerobatics and then you really can yank and bank round the sky (gotta love the feeling of 4 times your own body weight!) The principal is exactly the same, as you say, just the orientation and not having a reference point for speed (none of this ASI nonsense for me lol!) Paddy

Radian Pro - your thoughts?

But this new one with both ailerons and flaps looks very tempting for £180 BNF! May have to go the Xmas list! (almost here!) Anyone else of the same mindset?

Very nicely done Nigel, i could only dream of having access to tools (and the experience to use them) like that!
