    The show needs a better commentator. The "Bear (?)" is far too trying, arrogrant,annoying,egotistical,irritating and pushy! He spoils the show. Dave Bishop does a far better job!

    The GWS prop seems very brittle, breaks in storage. You only have to knock it and it breaks.

    Can anyone suggest an alternative replacement for a GWS 4 x 2.5 propeller? Thank you.

    I always found Whitchurch models to be very competitive on price! Martin was very enthusiastic about having a larger premises but the pandemic has changed that.

    It was sad to hear that Whitchurch Models that closed, Martin was very helpful and had a good assortment of items to purchase. I shall miss the shop a great deal as it was very handy for me. I walked pass the other day and it didn't look right, rather like a building that you pass by on a regular basis then it gets demolished. Trawling the internet for hours and shopping online isn't the same as walking into a shop. I wish Martin,Susan and Jasper well for the future!

    I have drill bits with sand paper, oxide paper and wet/dry paper glued to them,

    Thanks Cuban8, I use a similar method which consist of tracing the profiles from the plan to the actual piece of balsa. Then I make up cardboard templates which I use to help get the shape I require. As for sanding tools I use various objects and various blocks of wood including lollipop sticks and wooden coffee stirrers. One of my favourite objects for sanding at the moment is a Zap superglue bottle.

    Can anyone give me any tips to make the tail fillet for the TN Mig 15? I wasn't happy with the first attempt, didn't look correct. It broke on removal and making a second this afternoon which may not work out? Thank you. Edited By Adrian Norris 1 on 08/05/2020 11:50:11

    I've had a few problems, COG,prop breaking on landing,always tips forward. I have now fitted a prop saver but need a better propeller than the GWS 4 x 2.5, any suggestions? The fuselage is a bit narrow and space is limited for the electrics, other than that it has plenty of go and turns quite tightly. Edited By Adrian Norris 1 on 01/04/2020 11:16:50

    You can also use heat(covering iron) on the water to "steam" the hole or dent out.

    Try a dab of water! Swells the wood, let it dry and then sand it. I could be wrong, pushing a pin through balsa compresses the fibres around the pin.
