Hi Bob, I used spray paint from homebase, its called"Rust-oleum" craft and hobby enamel. I works Ok, has no effect on the foam and comes in lots of colours. I find a couple of colours to give a contrast make the model a bit more visable, but they all seem to look the same once its up there! Best place to paint it? Well...either in the shed or garage is good or in the garden if its a nice day!! DM

No probs with getting them apart, not too much skin lost so not to worry, as I say its usually me getting stuck to something. She wasn't too keen when I mentioned getting the V tail attached though.... DM

So there I was trying to glue the nose cone onto my Christmas MPX Blizzard, but it really needed a second pair of hands. I'm pretty hopeless with the cyno, always glueing either my fingers together or to something else, like the cleaning cloth, so I asked SWMBO for assistance, anyway, to cut a long story short, we got the nose on OK, but managed to cyno her fingers together in the process. This made a change, and its good to have a shared hobby...

A Pheonix 2000 (HK) from the kids, a Great planes C of G machine, very useful, and "accidently" bought myself an MPX Blizzard last week . I'm happy. DM

Hey Myron, bet you have a good word for all those who are looking after you, especially the nurse's! Get well and look after yourself, (and let Chrissy pamper you ), Good luck to you both,

Andy, you don't need that, lets hope your on the mend, and if I don't win the lotto this weekend, I really hope you do! Good Luck!!

Mind you, I could proberly get close to a 2.5 M glider!!

Just need to save up for that 3m mouldie now.................................   And I thought you were saving up, clearly it made an impression!   Dave

The velcro is for attaching your camera, obvious really!

"The Joy of Slope"   I managed to get a half hour flying at Morthoe this afternoon with my Weasel, fantastic model and great flying site, a short session I know, but it still counts!!   Dave

Sorry, double post for some reason.Edited By Dave M on 16/12/2011 08:05:28

Crikey BEB, surely its not the size that counts! .   Andy, I know I said it was scientific, but.....................maybe not that scientific,.I suppose I wonder, as there does seem to be a bit of "pride" (or bravado) on some forums etc about the wind speeds people fly in, as Wingman suggests in his post , there can be some wild guesswork!   I think that this is one of the big changes you need to get over when starting slope flying, actually wanting the wind, and actually launching into it, rather than not wanting too much when power flying, that and landing of course .   DM
