But probably restricted to 20mph in Wales.

Brownie points are the reserve of timid, married men who are prepared to do anything for a quiet life. Basically, it is a life-game of Snakes and Ladders, with a lot of long snakes and very few, short ladders. Some like to play the game. For those who don't want to play, staying single - or a decent divorce - negates the need to get involved. 😉

It was a grand day out today. . Loads of sunshine, great company and plenty of flying. 👍

The weather looks like it will be kind to us. 👍

Happy daze.... 😃

It really depends on HOW the aircraft will be flown. If they are only going to be trundled around the sky, the mini servos will probably be okay. . But if the intention is to "get the best" from the models, the smaller servos can (will) break. The torque figures quoted on some mini servos can be optimistic to say the least, but the bigger problem is their gears... they simply cannot take the strain. Fun Fly models in particular have large control surfaces and BIG throws.... trust me, mini servos WILL strip their gears in flight if the model is pushed hard. Beware of using servos without a ballraced output shaft (Futaba s148 for example). The shafts wear out very quickly if/when subjected to high loads. The shafts then become wobbly and vague. Control authority and servo centring will suffer accordingly. They are okay in basic trainers but shouldn't really be used in any model which has a higher performance.

Fingers crossed for some good weather. Tibenham is a great place to fly from. 👍

A mate of mine has been convicted for over-using commas. The judge told him to expect a long sentence

It was probably supposed to be named something like Llandudno, but after a couple of glasses of homemade wine had anaesthetised their tongues prior to the naming ceremony, it came out a bit different. 😉

There is a petition about the 20mph speed limits in Wales. . Over 400,000 people has signed it (so far) and still the idiots in authority are ignoring it. I predict there will be a rise in the sale of angle grinders plus a spot of overdue anarchy if the speed limits are not restored to their former levels.

They are all different. . That's what makes it fun.
