I remember him saying its a strong plane because he had a bad landing in it and it cartwheeled the only repair was to the wing tip seen in picture, another 2 planes he gave me but I was to scared to fly because I liked them was a massive vintage plane think it was called a bull dozer or a double dozer and the last was a 4 channel super sixty he said he wanted me to learn with ailerons , do you remember these models?

Yep Dave Mason ! He helped me out loads with trying to fly over a couple of years , every time we went out in his car he had to rock the grand montego as he called it backwards and forwards until the starter motor would catch , he helped me fly another plane of mine which he had to load the nose with more lead on than the local church (his words ) he said to my mum at the time the only reason the plane took off is with my wishing alone haha , getting that plan would be brilliant, now you know why I would like some help with it , I will pm you and find out if we can arrange for you to have a fly and maybe help me with it , it deserves to fly again , I still see his wife quite abit did you meet her ?

I can't work out the under caridge, just buy the laser cut parts , for the money it's not worth your time cutting it out -

Right so I've got the electrics sent through , well happy with them but........ How do they go together I've never used a lipo battery before what wires connect to the speed controller ? There's a white connector and a red one ? If someone could take the time over a phone call would be a brilliant help , I don't want to cause any fires and I need info on a battery charger thanks Steve -

Hello everyone, not flown in years , saw the bambino free plan and I'm hook again , I used to work in cb models in Harlow a long time ago I'm sure George had it at the time and it was taken over by another company but loved learning from the old boys there

Hello new to this site , I used to fly a mfa humming bird when I used to work in a model shop called cb models in Harlow , but I haven't flown in years, I walked passed your mag and saw the bambino and I couldn't help buy it , I didn't know what pack to buy so I bought both the laser cut parts and wood completion pack I didn't really find much info on them , I will also buy the electric kit fro 4max as suggested, my question is ive got an old futaba radio kit sitting in the loft , will the battery in the tx be any good after a charge ? Not sure they will be available any more must be 15 years old , cheers Steve
