Sort of agree with Martin .....Plan protector from SLEC all day long.

Also recommend Slec Plan Protection sheet even against Aliphatic and super Glue it doesnt stick or ruin your plans

Currently Building a Balsa USA SE5 and its the First time ive used PlasterBoard and can definately Recommend It

watching ......we learnt to fly on these 20 years ago when our instructors just handed us the Tx and then walked off you knew you were solo and had to learn to land by yourself Happy days.

Do you find it warm enough in there for Wood Glue and epoxy to set properly? I always seem to have trouble with slow setting times due to low temperatures, i have a 16x20 shed and a oil filled radiator and it can get toasty in there but always trouble some building in the winter months. Great workshop anyway keep up the great work cheers Dave P

Dont know if Kings Lynn Model shop tune into this Forum but i ordered on Friday Afternoon at 3pm from them a kit and Engine and it arrived Saturday by courier at 1pm Fantastic service as always.

Following along with interest Yes

Could someone explain the different categories and what it means ie F4C ? and F4H etc Ive seen dannys flying video with his control line chippie fantastic

i have a J perkins JPS3 Racer and that is exactly what it says to do in the Manual, i was reluctant to do it, but cut it anyway with a dremel and have had no problems with the motor at all. Dave P

Didnt tell you anything in my opinion, makes you wonder how a sucessful company turning out such popular models just stops!! No real explanation or anything, of course its not really our business i guess, but if that had been me id like to think id have had the biggest show tent at Weston Park and be selling britains finest and latest models.....hey ho.

Balsa usa do an Eindecker 90 which presumably refers to 90FS its an 80 inch wingspan and alot of builders put 20cc DLe petrols in them which obviously doesnt sound right but fly very reliably. I have a half built one in the Ops Room which i must get finished.

Can i ask how you fixed the main cabane struts in place? The plan and instructions are obviously 70s and they just glue them in permanently. Whislt im tempted to do just that coz its been sitting around a few years now. Curious to know how yours were done. cheers dave.

Have to agree with you on the Smoking and Vaping thing i get steamed up about that in a big way, i dont want to smell or inhale any of that muck, and it should be banned at the gate, or they go in an enclosure Down wind of everybody else.

The Tigermoth in my profile Picture started life with a 150 for the terrible maiden, but i think the wheels were a little stiff with paint but once airbourne you could see it was struggling.....changed to a 180 for a miraculous change in performance.

You should have Stayed that was the only major rain shower, great day had and made us laugh when the three full size extras were preforming in bright sunshine around 2.15 pm it suddenly Hailed and then one rumble of Thunder but that was it. Glad we went and spent over 200 myself and my brother brought a 60inch extra from OMP
