My BUSA Fokker D8 is for sale at Inwood Models . 4 bolts to hold the wings on and you are ready to fly. Model just needs an engine Bill

Yes. I was going to check my logbook for 1970/71 to see which Mk 5's I flew during training. Happy days

Two test flights successfully completed.

Well flight 1..gust stab only my handlaunch Just descended into the grass. Flt 2 stab fully on, handlaunch went great flew quite fast tried the other stab positions not very good so left at full stab. Forgot with edf not to get slow round finals and just missed the ground at full up elevator. Tried the same thing but with more power much better. Two further flights using 3s 1500 cells all good. Lived to flight another day. Bill

Hi John, I have , thanks to you, now sorted it out and using flap 3 position switch now ready for the maiden flight. Regards Bill

I have a spektrum TX and rx...any idea which channel on the rc to be able to use a 3 position switch?

Many thanks John. Managed to get it to work on both channels and isolate by a switch on the TX. Question is do I test fly with it on or off? Just seen your second post. Bill

Hi, Just acquired, the supposed prototype, Mini Jet Provost at the BMFA swapmeet today. Stupidly, forgot to ask any questions Lovely Model but its fitted with a stabiliser. Never had one of these. I have bound the rec to my spektrum nx6 and all works fine. However having connected the battery and placed the Model level I switched on the stabiliser and after a short time all seems well. If I move the Model laterally the ailerons move to correct the Model ,if upside down it applies full aileron. Elevator also works in the correct sense. If I state the two position "a" switch I can stop the roll stab function but not the pitch function. So the question are .... .1. Am I arming the system correctly? 2. Should I try to allocate a 3 position switch to the isolate function? 3. What make/model is the stab system? Thanks...hope to maiden it this week Bill

Seems to make sense. I was hoping someone had the strike plan

Chris has gotten rid of all his modelling stuff and cannot remember. Bill

Hi, Picked up a rc model designed by Chris Golds. Does anyone know where the C of G is please. Thanks Bill

Hi, Only just brought it home. The video is great. The Model is the same but mine is " a bit untidy!!" Will post some pictures in the next few days. My ancestors were French so probably get away with it. Unable to contact Jan...replies switched off on you tube Many thanks for the prompt reply Bill

Hi, Just picked up a old Bleriot .Any ideas on an electric conversion? Approx 60" span. Thanks Bill

You only pay if you go into the museum, house or gardens....otherwise Free entry to the event. Don't know if there is a charge to fly?

One of the nicest flying Models I ever had. I have been looking for a built one for years but no joy Bill

Many thanks for your past assistance and good luck for the future Jon...you are a star. Hope to see you at some modelling do's

Hi Jon, Thanks for clearing that up. Bill

My source says he got the information directly from Jon

I was considering selling my laser G30 , petrol 180. A potential buyer said that Laser Engines stated that no more petrol engines will be built ,till further notice, and that they will no longer supporting the engine as regards servicing and parts. Has anyone else heard of this , withdrawal of support, and does it apply to other development engines? Bill Like Comment Share
