Ballast.....The Hammer likes ballast!!! -
I have both the Mefisto and Hammer. I think they were both excellent value for money when I purchased them from Flyingdog at least four years ago. Both have had 1 pair of replacement wings due to being used almost daily!

My old 1.9m Mefisto is ready to soar again. Recently I have repaired the snapped fuse and re painted with 2K paint, replaced the wing with a new 4 servo wing covered in clear and translucent blue Oracover, new tail feathers, new snakes, new servo's and hardware throughout, new TX and new paint job to the nose cone. She's just like new! but a little bit heavier 925g Old old new new

A short film from South Gower where the Sun always shines Edited By FWAL on 28/08/2015 17:18:29 Edited By FWAL on 28/08/2015 17:19:55

After practically 4 continues days of low misty clouds and rain the Sun shone on Sunday afternoon. A quick visit to the slope was in order. The patchy clouds and 20mph wind made it great for flying and I attempted to multi task by trying to fly and photograph at the same time. I almost came a cropper on a couple of occasions.

Hi Andy The location is Deep Slade, locally known as Hunts due to the proximity of Hunts Farm where you park and it's just a short walk to slope. Deep Slade is between Southgate and Pwll Du Bay on The Gower Peninsular and like a large chunk of the Peninsular is owned by the National Trust. So yes it's a Public Site but luckily off the beaten track. Rhossili isn't that far away either but PG's never bother you at Hunts. Mk

Managed an hour at the slope yesterday and took the GoPro. There was plenty of Sunshine and lift. If the truth be told a little too much for the 600g AUW Traceur. The Faze 6 is a Phase 6 with a clipped 66" wing with a straight not swept back leading edge. Edited By FWAL on 19/08/2015 09:14:01
