I remember the Fizza! a guy at my old club had one, was great, one of those on a brushless and 11.1 lipo will be "exciting" haha ill have a look at getting the plans

I used to fly a very modded acrowot and loved that... what about the foam e version or wots wot with no undercarrage? think itd be ok to long grass land?
-
I dont have a runway where i fly, its rough knee length grass, luckly i have a slope/quarry to fly there and huge fields to fly above, also fly the local dunes, currently i have a wildthing, zaggi copy and an electric pusher thing called a sky surfer so im after something i can chuck launch and land in grass, something thatll get my skills back but not be boring, was looking at the durafly efx racer but only get 3 min flights so id need a load of batteries, i do like a war bird but at the opersite end i used to like flying my easy glider pro so im open to options!

Posted by Devcon1 on 08/07/2018 19:02:59: I know you've mentioned slope soaring as a current activity but what sort of models/flying are you intending on as that will help guide your radio choice. lots of slope soaring, i used to fly Ic too, had a carbon acrowot, extra wot, arising star with silly big engine, daft flat delta home made from insulation board things covered in brown paper again with silly big motors, an easy glider for relaxing maybe some electric this time too...so a broad mix. i had way too many lol

cheers guys, yeah it all comes back quite quickly, was out at the big dunes near me flying for 3 hours this evening, im loving it again!

The more I look in to them, coupled with posts from respected forum members on the "survey" the frsky looks very good and great value for money!

I want 2.4 gig, im not going back to 1970's technology lol, Im also a licenced radio amature and know how much interferance there is with 35mhz its in my opinion outdated technology. Its the actual new radio transmitters im not sure about, which ones are best/very popular etc. Edited By r6dan on 08/07/2018 11:20:25

Ive got myself a cheap Futaba T6L to get in the air again, its like a childs toy but itll do the job for the moment, I had an 8FG when they first came out and was faultless but it seems they are almost extinct now, So what are the up and coming transmitters to get? it seems theres lots more on the market now so im a bit lost !!
-
there doesnt seem to be many RR kits about

Just had a look at those and they look really good, just the type of thing for warm summer days! due to my just getting back in the hobby im lacking in everything so could tick a few boxes
-

Am i on my own or does anyone else hate tape with a passion? i can never get it flat without bubbles and wrinkles, it sticks to its self then to me then to scissors, then my knife, then to the bench then everything else ! just finished a zaggi type thing and it looks gash, should still fly though ive orded a Wildthing too but after the re-enforcing tape its getting solartex not that horrible tape hahahahahaha
