Also if you wear glasses check where the scratches are before starting

I get carried away as well, my next ones a glider, own design something simple with motor on to gain height, then do some aerobatics. At worse WF all you would need to do is shorten w/span a little if needed

Yes mate

Can't fault that Colin, it was built for a purpose, not just for modellers to copy.
With you on October as well, will buy wood at nats and get some flying done for now

Another nice colour scheme, I like it Nev
I've just done two silver models, mine could end up yellow, I fancy a few rivets myself, its easy they come in a bottle

Good photo's Erf, Starfighter is a bit nice

Looks great Kev, needs a few trees planting though, proper modellers have trees on site
Used to have a mini Hype myself, had closed loop on rudder and elevators and didn't come pre fitted, absolute nightmare, turned out to be a cracking model though.

Like your colour scheme as well Martyn, I share most of your aims but will leave the camping out.

You are old that's why I do all the fetching n carrying

I don't have any telemetry, I will have some when I buy a Taranis.
But I don't need it to tell me when its too windy to fly. Telemetry between my ears takes care of that.

Anyone thinking of buying either model, I can recommend them, both fly very well.

Like your colour scheme Chris, i'll shut up now.

Good colour scheme Glenn, there's lots to do.

Still your designs though Peter, must be very satisfying to see them being built
Iqon, I agree it's for flying, but I always stop short on the detail, I get stuck, this time I have other builders to ask questions of. Seeing how it's done in blogs is a great help.
I think I can up my limit Danny, I don't have to sit scratching my head on this one, I can ask questions. That's why I joined in, plus I like being involved.
One plane I have always wanted is the FW 190, my absolute favourite, I hope to learn enough to build myself a real good looking scale job in the future.
A bit of info from Doncaster air museum (who have a Chippie) 616 squadron South Yorkshire where the first Jet squadron, 271 squadron took part in D-Day flying Dakotas

John's Dawn Flyer...(more likely to be noon flyer)

Done my u/c, turned out quite neat, what you think ? it has a little forward rake because of comments made by others
also done my main mast, just need a flag on it now. Fly it this Sunday is the plan.
