Hello John Bunting,Well the monoplane has flown! As I told you I had to do some serious mods but our club test pilot flew her today in conditions the were hardly ideal. The frst flight was "interesting" but after some adjustments the second was much better. I myself am waiting for better conditions as I suspect that it will still be a bit difficult to handle. Thank you for your interest in my modelHappy FlyingDave C.

Hi John,Thank you for your reply. This is the first time I have built from a plan as aposed to a kit and I thinkI have just built too heavy. I have extended the engine mounting and now got her to balance OK. I amnow waiting for a suitable test day. I will post a report after I have tested but dont know when that will be as our field is waterlogged.Regards. Dave.

Is there anyone out there who has built a Browne Monoplane as of the free plan in August RCMand E? I have built this exactly to the plan but when I came to check the Cof G it is horrendously tail heavy. I dont mean a few ounces, more than a pound! The CoG is shown on the main spar (as you would expect ) but is it possible the it is wrongly shown? Has anyone else come across this problem?Regards Dave C.

Maybe my luck will change at last.

I think I could use a Texan kit.

I can't remember if I have entered this or not! Never mind I have now!

The odds must be about the same as the Lottery but I must have a go.

Never won a thing in my life but I will give it a go!
