Usually anything out of the ordinary. Most of my fleet are gliders, so canards and big deltas etc feature heavily. On the PSS side, I prefer stuff that's rarely modelled and flown in the genre - i.e. F104, Hawker Typhoon, SBD, C17 etc. There are some modern jets I do like the look of, but mostly my juices get flowing for anything from British WW2 to British Cold War.

I followed the same method on my big 262. Just make sure there's a sealing coat of varnish down before you get into the oils, as at least you can get rid of mistakes or make changes without affecting the paintwork underneath.

A few more shots of the big Schwalbe from this year's PSS Fest on the Lleyn Peninsula. Still flying great, now has more decals, weathering, pilot etc.

A fantastic long event, with 9 days of flying out of 10 on the slopes. Great pics too Phil, many thanks.

"hybrid" pinch, and a harness most of the time. Very useful for solo slope launching.

Its the last Weston Park show to be organised and run by the Bishops, not necessarily the last one ever. We had great fun from Thursday night till Sunday afternoon with all of my other flying buddies there, some great buys in the swap meet again, and stocked up on balsa and hardware.

It's looking beautiful Dirk - great work.

She looked the part Phil, great work. I'll try and get one of my Sea Hawks sorted for the next even so we can fly some formations 🙂

Such a shame, never knew about the triple champ bit. Blue skies Chris.

Can you post some pictures of the nose - one side elevation, one plan view? And then maybe some accurate measurements of width and height, then I can create the files quickly to the right size.

I've still got my Dad's half-started Aerotech Welly in the container - she'll be PSS at some point Chris 😉

It's possible to flash a 3rd party firmware onto the controller so it transmits at a higher power output, thus extending the range.

She's a stunner Glenn 👍

Hi Jason, Thanks for the kind comment. I don't have any video of it myself - it's pretty rare actually that any video is taken at our meets.

Hi Chris, sorry to hear of the trials and tribulations of the non-modelling life. I hope everything gets back on track soon with mobility and then the modelling. Take care. Andy
