  1. John   You are correct it was super 8 film which can nowadays be converted onto a DVD. I think it had a Veco 61 in it.   I remember after building the fuselage from dowel I re-inforced the joints with steel pins.   The noseover on the movie after landing was edited out.   It nearly always nosed over on grass but it was OK on tarmac
  2. I built this way back in the 70's and used dowel for the fuselage and Ali tube, as per plan.   The model flew well, I passed it on to a clubmate and it can still fly these days.   The only problem was it's tendency to noseover on landing   A wee video of it's maiden flight - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_Iep9-HwSs
  3. I had a 363 in 1969 and it flew well but was destroyed in a mid-air

  9. Is this the ugliest biplane?   Electric powered and flew last week

  11. That was my Sopwith Dove on the previous page when we attended the Angus club's excellent event in August. Here is a wee vid of its maiden flight       Edited By Lew Weaver on 19/11/2010 22:16:46
  12. You are correct John - I meant Ray Hannah
  13. OK - here is the model that the sound module is fitted in - it has a fairly low wing loading so should be able to take the extra weight.     And here are the loudspeakers temporarily fitted facing out from either side of the front cockpit.
  14. I have just installed the Model Solutions module and am looking for advice on the best way to mount the 2x4ohm loudspeakers.   At the moment I have them fitted in the front cockpit (of a Bucker Student) and  was wondering if they should have some sort of cover over the back of them to maximise the sound volume?
