My aviation background ? got none. It was fishing and rock concerts for me as a kid, Loved it, would do it all again if I could
First model was a Keil Kraft Matador, wings folded because I used wrong balsa on wing spars. Built a lot of models since, always fly well but I chicken out on the detail, I really struggle with the scale stuff. So that's why I joined in the build, if the talent that's on here can't get me a WOW , i'm a lost cause.

p.s. I want a picture as well, but I can't make my mind up.

Never been to Greenacres either, hoping to make the Sunday, was going to camp but club has 4 events on the trot and I've got to pace myself
don't know who's in charge of your weather but he may want to try sacrificing a chicken to RA (asda frozen one, no cruelty). You'll recognize me easy, i'll be the one fetching and carrying for Iqon all day

Our clubs been asked to do a display at this charity event and there is a club close by....Concorde. Does anyone have contact details for them, I would like discuss a few things with them. Have looked on their website but get under construction.

Looks to me so far that only impact or misuse results in failures TWS ?
Also bear in mind a lot of us that have posted use an awful lot more than one lipo, so the 155 figure could be viewed differently if say we had an average of 6 or whatever the number may be. And if I where to say how few incidents amongst 60 club members the figure would look even more reassuring. ....so far

What's that Simon ?

Been at it again
in All Things Model Flying

Mid wing, low wing, high wing loads of models rudder only. Can't really tell from picture WF but looks like plenty dihedral. Fuzz maybe looks a little short but i'm no expert. And I thought you had a workshop now.
