toos from the hill

@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css); Thanks Tim but its a strange setup and really fussy seem really clunky compared to other forum set ups ,best way is not to post links or paste documents obviously . I apologize for the interruption to the normal posting .

Andy ,my advise is to right now plan on a few 100 pounds a year to begin with as your sloping allowance . Once the slope bug bites resistance is futile , Although I've not seen or flown a wildthing they are a very popular choice in England . There are many other models available but its wise to stick with a model with local knowledge behind it. As to an engine and a Zagi steer clear of it you don't need either .And I'm sure that most the guys on this this thread would be most upset by the whiring noise of a prop wrecking the serenity of the slope. Stick with these lads and you'll be a slope flying fool like the rest of us in no time Is there a cure for slope fever ? No you'll never get it out of your system .

P.S just added a few photo's of progress on my latest PSS build @import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

Hello gents , Happy new year to you all , I've just had a look at the model your looking at Ian to me it very pricey for a foam model you could get a 2.6 mtr glass ASW28 for less that are well know flyers . Or a DG1000 of which I have 2 I also have the ASW28 and prefer its flying attitude still if you looking for a foamie ,then I humbly suggest looking to the ST model range , once again they do an ASW28 and a DG1000 with and up and go,They are well proven and widely reviewed . Now back to building for me cheers all @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

Shhhhhh everyone will want in at this rate , you've now raised the car accident rate in Britian due to the fact of slopers staring out the windows of their cars looking at every bump in the ground and thinking what wind direction would make it work Edited By stephen wenban on 20/10/2011 02:54:38

Info on the way Marty

Posted by Marty Ball on 07/09/2011 13:59:07: Well Big Phil, I guess you are well and trully on the slippery slope (pardon the pun), Gets adictive don't it? I'm not sure if I should thank or curse Tim for introduing me to the slope. I'm making the best of the wet weather we have up here in N. Wales, I've been putting off building the U2 Dragon Lady I bought from LEG because of lack of instructions. Jack from LEG dosn't supply instructions, he says "There are loadsa build threads out there", Hmmm, Well if there are I can't find them for the LEG U2! I am going to make one mod and that is to incorporate I weak link (breakaway) for the wings. The Orme is a very unforgiving venue if you get the landing aproach wrong! (which is the normal course of events for me ). Edited By Marty Ball on 07/09/2011 14:00:08 pm me you email addy and I'll send you a PDF file of the build instruction for a 60 EPP U2 from tuff planes very similiar builds. anyway its here if you want it

Dont take this the wrong way but flying slope is nothing like flying power I fly some large stuff as well but only pure slope , the 1 thing that all power flyers suffer from is a heavy elevator thumb , you have to remember up elevator does not equal altitude gain leave the elevator alone and you'll be ok

You wont want to fly an SL in 70mph breeze or you'll re kit it before you caan blink . get your self somme epp foam and seeing as you in the US a windrider Bee or any of the EPP birds from Windrider and you'll have so much more success save the SL for no wind or flat feild thermalling
